Young jazz bands will have lots of fun developing their swing chops with this creative and very easy chart! Trumpets get a chance to use the wa-wa effect, piano gets to show off with short written fills, and the drummer has a short (or extended) solo spot. The open solo section (written solos included) allows the soloist(s) to trade-off with the band background parts, so they don't have to solo for the full 12 bars. Paper Jam is effective, easy, fun - and highly recommended!

The chart features written-out solos for tenor sax and trumpet 2, and the trumpet 1 range is to written E top space. It is fun, it's Latin and it will sound great!

Yep, it's in 4/4 not 5/4. A clever chart on a super classic that everyone will recognize, young or old. The bossa nova tempo is around 130 BPM and there are written suggested solos for piano and alto sax. Lead trumpet range is to written B-flat above the staff, and an interlude reoccurs to offer contrast. It all works great! Take Five has been skillfully arranged by John Zontek. (4:50).
