As
recorded on Libertango !
Hommage to Astor
Piazzolla by the HR Big
Band (Germany), this
arrangement will surely
lift your audiences out
of their seats. It
features a main soloist
of your choice
(originally recorded with
bandoneon solo) and
another solo for tenor
saxophone. Various parts
are included for
different soloists to
use. This marvelous
arrangement opens with
warm sounds in clarinets,
muted trombones and
flugelhorns behind the
beautiful melody stated
by the primary soloist.
The setting is a medium
tango, with a short,
exciting swing section
near the end of the
chart. Once the piece
moves into a strong,
rock-fusion feel, there
is no turning back. You
and your band will love
this chart. This requires
clarinet doubles on the
top 3 saxophone parts and
bass clarinet on the
baritone part. There is
also a mallet part
(marimba, vibes and
xylophone). 5-4-4-5.

Bob has
created an absolutely
thrilling 12 minute work,
inspired by his Celtic
roots (Towednack is a
small area in Cornwall,
England). The Celtic
influence is heard in the
triple-meter settings and
the interlude which
reflects back on a
Riverdance style of
music. Tenor sax is
featured. Very much in
the genre of his
Metheny/Mays charts of
the past. Commissioned by

the August, 1999 Kenton

Every once in a

Master-of-melodies, Pat
Metheny, did just that in
his composition of Tell

transformed it into a

throughout that slowly

This is
a fast, swing chart that
is a feature for tenor
saxophone. The soloist
gets to blow in a
free-form setting, or the
soloing can be done in
time with the rhythm
section. The rest of the
band plays a neat, tight
introduction to the
improvisation, and they
follow the solo with the
same swinging, nifty
music as the front end.
This is a clever, hip,
piece that makes a great
addition to any
program..... especially
if your brass section
needs a rest. Les
recorded this with his
wonderful band on Live at
