Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

The title, "Jazz Mind," refers to the thought process of the jazz musician who is intently focused and yet easily distracted to new ideas. This dichotomy is represented in Jazz Mind by a lighthearted 'A' section melody accompanied by a Songo groove in the rhythm section. The melody is later contrasted with a different mood and with an alternate swing-section melody at the bridge. Solo sections for Alto 1 and Trumpet 2 (optional open sections.) Notated rhythm section parts and solo sheets provided for additional soloists. Lead trumpet: Written D. 5, 4, 4, P, B, D. Medium.
