Edition: JAZZ SEXTET ARRANGEMENT [3 HORNS WITH RHYTHM SECTION]

Description: LATIN - MEDIUM

Publisher: Hal Leonard

Now you're ready for some energy. After an 8 measure rhythm section Latin intro, the melody stays Latin for 12 bars requiring the drums to set up the ensemble figures before switching to swing for all but the last 4 measures of the melody. The solos are swing, except for the last 4 measures of each chorus (Latin). There are optional 2 or 3 horn backgrounds for any soloist. There is also an optional shout chorus added to the original arrangement which is another Don Sickler orchestration drawn from David's solo choruses from the original recording. A note from the composer: Pearls was composed shortly after the death of my mother. Her name was Pearl and I wrote this for her because she was my first musical inspiration. It is a 32 bar form but not with traditional length parts. The parts are 12, 6, 10, and 4 bars long.
