Audio Sample:

Edition: Jazz Combo Arrangement (5 Horns with Rhythm)

Description: Latin/Swing - Medium

Publisher: Second Floor Music/Hal Leonard

Recorded by SUPERBLUE on SUPERBLUE
Blue Note: CDP 7 91731 2 / Recorded April 26, 1988

As with all the Tina Brooks compositions offered by Second Floor Music, this uptempo piece has a catchy melody that swings naturally and changes that have an easy, logical flow and are rewarding to play over. The melody contrasts a rhythmically-active Latin A section with a flowing swing bridge. The solo section includes an exciting background behind the tenor sax solo that incorporates the entire band.

Note: this can be played by all saxes - a great sax section feature!

SOLOS: The solo section is over an uptempo swing feel throughout. The changes are very idiomatic and will be fun to play over for anyone with an uptempo bebop aptitude. II-V changes.
