LATIN medium-easy
Mamacita—Joe Henderson/arr. Terry White. All
sections and the full ensemble are in the act with
this Joe Henderson classic set as a medium tempo
Latin chart with a bit of swing feel. At about 150
bpm, the opening statement is played by tenor 1 and
trumpet 1 with written suggested solos for each. The
trumpet 1 range is to written F top line, and there are
options for reduced or expanded instrumentations
with the included optional parts. Easy to play and
rehearse, it's highly recommended!

Mamacita Needs a Break—Peter Sciaino.
Driving Latin rhythms, great polyphonic writing,
and interesting major seventh over minor chord
harmony combine to make this chart unforgettable.
There are lots of dynamic contrasts, so the full
range of your group will be showcased. The
haunting melody weaves between sections
throughout the composition, which really makes
the piece hang together well. Check it out!

The Mooche—Duke Ellington/arr. Mark Taylor.
Composed in 1928, Ellington's The Mooche was
characterized as "jungle style" at the time thanks
to the unique instrumentation and rhythmic style.
Mark Taylor's outstanding version for developing
players alternates between the Latin styles of salsa
and mambo, and features solo space for tenor sax
and trombone. Unique and effective, this one is
highly recommended!

Pantalones Malos—Steve Shanley. Build a
stronger understanding of Latin jazz with this
exciting and authentic cha-cha with a Cuban flair
and laid-back feel. Pantalones Malo features plenty
of auxiliary percussion, an accessible solo section,
clear articulations, and interesting parts for all. The
solo section has suggested note choices included
in each instrumental part. Playable with optional
reduced instrumentation, this is ideal as change-
of-pace programming!

Road Song—Wes Montgomery/arr. Mark Taylor.
Composed by jazz legend Wes Montgomery, here
is a moderate Latin/rock treatment of this popular
standard that features a tuneful melody over
great changes. A call-and-response style is used
throughout, first with smaller group scoring and
later the entire ensemble. Suggested or improvised
solos are included for trumpet and tenor sax.

H
Running of the Bulls—Doug Beach & George
Shutack. This unique original is an ideal change-
of-pace tune for your next festival or concert
program. For developing ensembles, it opens with
a mysterious, Spanish style rubato introduction with
solo trumpet and rhythm section, then breaks into
an all-out, hot Latin/Spanish style that doesn't let
up. Crisp ensemble work and written or improvised
solos lead to a percussion break before the head
returns. Pure excitement!
10093888 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .55.00
Senorita—arr. Paul Murtha. Recorded by
contemporary artists Shawn Mendes with Camila
Cabello, this popular hit has ruled the pop charts with
its seductive Latin style and memorable melodies.
This version for developing players features brief
written or improvised solo spots for alto sax and
trombone and later highlights for all sections.

So Danco Samba—Antonio Carlos Jobim/arr.
Victor Lopez. Victor Lopez creatively sets Jobim's
great samba with an alternating and brief swing
feel. The tempo is around 158 bpm, and it's tasty
with some clever quotes you'll recognize. There's
also a written or improvised solo for tenor sax, a
few piano montuno interludes, accessible brass
ranges, and optional parts included for augmented
instrumentations. Add it all together and you've got
a fine samba chart. Highly recommended!

H Song for My Father—Horace Silver/arr. Mark
Taylor. A classic composition by Horace Silver, this
tune is written in a moderate Latin style. Opening
with a 4 horn combo (alto, tenor, trumpet, trombone),
it features some very nice ensemble writing.
2384295 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .45.00
The Squirrel from Pasadena—Chris Sharp. The
title of this tune is a thinly disguised suggestion of
the Jobim composition that is everyone's favorite
Bossa Nova. There is a solo section for alto and
trumpet with written solos or chord changes for
improvisation. This is a great Latin addition for your
developing high school band and your students will
have a great time calling out, "Squirrel!"

St. Thomas—Sonny Rollins/arr. Mark Taylor.
Plenty of solid tutti ensemble scoring is featured
in this arrangement for small group of Sonny
Rollins' familiar Latin standard. The solo section
can be opened up for any player and a tasty
unison ensemble chorus follows. Suggested
solos and scale/chord sheets are included.
Highly recommended! Instrumentation: 3 saxes,
2 trumpets, 1 trombone plus rhythm section.
Optional additional parts are included for alto, tenor
& trombone.

Taking Flight—Carl Strommen. Here is a great
even-eighth note chart with a really catchy hook.
The focus is on the ensemble, but there is solo
space for tenor saxophone and trumpet. Your
students will be humming this catchy tune long
after rehearsal!

l Un Poco Mas—Paul Baker. Un poco mas - a
little bit more- that's what this chart offers, and it
delivers! Opening with a definitive brass statement,
it settles into a smooth Latin groove before
switching things up with a half-time feel on the
bridge. Returning to Latin, the form finishes and
launches into the solo sections. Both solos can
be successfully navigated using only the concert F
harmonic minor or F blues scales. Written solos are
provided for trumpet and tenor sax. The chart ends
with a roar to the finish line!

Afro Blue—Mongo Santamaria/arr. Michael
Mossman. Even though this is scored by Michael
Philip Mossman for just six horns in the Little Big
Band Series, the writing is sophisticated and full
sounding. Written in 3/4, but featuring an Afro-
Cuban 6/8 groove, this marvelous chart includes
solos for tenor or trumpet. Instrumentation: 3
saxes, 2 trumpets, 1 trombone, rhythm section
with optional additional parts for alto sax, tenor sax
and trombone.
10074146 Jazz Ensemble
(Little Big Band). . . . . . . . . . . .45.00
Afro Blue—Mongo Santamaria/arr. Michael
Mossman. Made famous by John Coltrane, but
treated here in a more traditional Afro-Latin
style, this is something a little different for jazz
ensemble. As with all Mossman charts, the
rhythm section is meticulously notated to ensure
the correct style. The 3/4 pattern throughout
draws heavily on African influences and the
melody is masterfully passed from section to
section. A single pentatonic scale works for the
solo section, making this a wonderful vehicle for
involving many soloists.
