Obtai ning a good blend is always difficult with an open sax voicing such as the one in measure 73it may take several attempts to achieve this. This arrangement also uses the voicing of 1st Alto Sax in prime unison with 1st Trumpet during ensemble sections. As for dynamics, remember to increase volume when ascending the scale and decrease it when descending the scale.

Four of five trumpet parts call for flugelhorn doubles and alto saxes have optional flute doubles.

The lines of this arrangement are divided contrapuntally into two sections -- trumpets/altos and trombones/tenors. These lines should be played in a relaxed fashion at a mezzo forte volume, with short quarter notes throughout. At the ensemble chorus at measure 69, strive for good balance and a very full, well-supported sound.

The first 12 measures of this chart require good balance and presence from the rhythm section (preferably electric). A nice and full dynamic change at measures 29 and 61 is necessary, and the saxophone countermelody in the last ensemble section (measure 61) should be strongly played and clearly heard.
