Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Medium Difficult

Publisher: Baker's Jazz and More

As the title suggests, Terry Town is a fun bebop chart in the joyful spirit and tradition of the late, great Clark Terry. Each section gets its turn in the spotlight, saxes at first, trumpets on the bridge, and trombones on solo backgrounds. A trumpet solo is followed by a piano (or guitar) solo, and then the trombones and bass trade fours with the drums. The trumpets join in with the guitar and lead to a big flag-waving shout chorus that features the lead trumpet, who sails above the ensemble and gets the last word at the end of the chart. The trumpet range is to written high C. Another Paul Baker chart that has it all!
