Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement with Vocal or Tenor Sax Soloist

Description: Straight 8th Rock - Medium Difficult

Publisher: HX Music

Celebrate the 50th anniversary of a 20th century masterwork with this authentic retelling of Long Distance Runaround, originally recorded by British progressive rock band Yes. An iconic moment in pop and rock history is scored neatly for big band with the option to feature either a vocalist or tenor sax soloist. Just like the original, powered by bass guitar and sprightly jazz drums, this version captures the spirit of adventurous art rock. Two, brief open solos for any instrument cap the long outro.
