Skillfully blending jazz with R&B saxophonist Grover Washington Jr. created a fusion classic with his 1975 recording of this tune. Roger beautifully adapts the soulful lines and hypnotic groove for jazz ensemble in this nicely scored arrangement.

This classic swinger will send you and your jazz ensemble back to the big band era. By borrowing rhythmic and melodic ideas from two familiar big band standards Vuono has created his own big band classic. Alto and trumpet are both featured for solos and their parts contain both chord changes and written solos. To accommodate smaller ensembles this chart is playable with only five brass.

No solos to worry about in this easy going swing chart with great appeal. Based on ?rhythm changes? around a moderate swing 2 and 4 this chart includes some great plunger work (optional) for the brass. Swing Spoken Here hooks you right away and doesn?t let go excellent writing that is sure to become a favorite with young jazz ensembles!
