JAZZ ROCK & FUNK
4e Night Owls—Greg Moody. Pat Metheny meets
Dave Brubeck in this original rock composition
that recalls the fusion-tinged jazz of the 1960s.
You'll find the ranges to be very reasonable while
challenging your students rhythmically. The first
solo goes to the trumpet while the piece builds,
and then a second solo section for saxophone
later on. Give your band some great experience
playing in unusual meters!
