Composed by brothers Cannonball and Nat Adderley, this straight-eighth groove will captivate. At 120 BPM, the lead trumpet range is to written G on top of the staff, solos are written-out for alto and tenor, and check out the stop-time section followed by the big shout chorus. Includes an optional vibraphone part, too. Highly recommended chart. / Ensemble De Jazz

Recording artist, saxophonist, educator, and author Gary Campbell presents an effective strategy for constructing fresh-sounding melodic lines. He progresses step by step through the concept, the practice exercises, and the practical application of Triad Pairs for Jazz. Concepts include: deriving triad pairs from the most used chord-scales, determining the best pairs for various chords and progressions, practice patterns for mastery, and exploring linear possibilities. Recommended for intermediate to advanced players as an expansion of the chord-scale approach.
