Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Jazz Lines Publications

This arrangement was originally written by Al Cohn in 1961 for the Gerry Mulligan Concert Jazz Band. Gerry re-wrote the arrangement for the group utilizing much of Cohn's content but adding quite a bit of his own material as well as altering the structure of the piece. The chart features solos for baritone saxophone, guitar, trumpet, and tenor saxophone. The beauty of this piece - and much of Gerry's writing - is the interplay between different instruments and sections.
