A ballad is the great way to feature a strong soloist, but what if the ballad is not written to feature the correct instrument? Afterglow solves this problem by including solo parts and ensemble parts in EACH PART of the jazz ensemble. Any player in the band can play the solo part while the rest of the players play their ensemble parts. Correlated with the Standard of Excellence Advanced Jazz Ensemble Method, the improvisation portion of the solo part includes a written out embellished version of the melody. - Beginning Level Jazz Charts - Flexibly orchestrated so that they can be played with as few as 9 players. - Everyone in the ensemble has an opportunity to improvise in the open solo section. - Includes two suggested solos and a CD with a solo practice track, to facilitate successful improvisation.

The Cat's Meow is straight-ahead swinger in the same vein as Benny Golson's classic Killer Joe. The melody is a very simple riff that repeats at different levels over the course of the form. The cat who inspired the tune is a furry exotic Persian named Berlioz who took up residence in the composer's house. Like most cats, his life consists mainly of eating and sleeping. He most often resides at the top of the stairs, and never bothers to try to get out of the way.

The four bar hi-hat solo leads to a strong ensemble intro. A unison tenor sax/ trombone section soli theme follows until the bridge section shows us the sax section for four bars then the full ensemble which leads to the last sax/trombone theme. Written or ad lib solos follow then it’s a classic Basie style shout chorus with four measure drum solo fills. A great style-teaching-tool, and a perfect opener for any festival or concert performance. Optional high/low Trumpet parts are provided on this publication.
