This is an awesome Mingus double-time swing chart in the original version as recorded on the Mingus Big Band 93 CD. It kicks off with a hot bari sax intro, features some really tight licks, an extended open solo section, and an infectious bari sax line that drives the whole piece. Serious jazz for serious bands! 2388650 Jazz Ensemble. . . . . . . . . . . . . 65.00 5627443 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . . 7.50 Moment's Notice—John Coltrane/arr. Alan Baylock. Alan Baylock crafts a great swinger on one of Coltrane's brilliant compositions. Set around 208 bpm, this chart includes solo space for alto and tenor and a lead trumpet range to written high C. A big shout chorus and sax soli complete the package. Outstanding chart! 10452152 Jazz Ensemble. . . . . . . . . . . . . 60.00 10452153 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . 12.00 Samantha—Sammy Nestico. Originally written for and played by Bud Shank, this showpiece for alto sax features a wide dynamic range and calls for a soft, smooth approach to background figures. Although written solo lines are provided throughout, the main solo chorus includes chord changes for players with improvisation chops. The chart closes out with a solo cadenza over a sustained ensemble chord. 10283500 Jazz Ensemble. . . . . . . . . . . . . 55.00 10283501 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . 10.00 Whiplash—Hank Levy/arr. Erik Morales. Featured in the 2014 movie "Whiplash," depicting the relationship between an ambitious student musician and an abusive, yet respected instructor, this chart is a super-exciting work in 7/4 composed by Hank Levy and arranged by Erik Morales. Don't be intimidated by the meter... it's challenging, but after a few minutes it feels quite natural and the students will totally groove on it. The melody is stated by 2nd trumpet and 1st alto with solo space for both on easy chord changes. Articulation is critical and the rhythm section may want to spend some quality time together. The lead trumpet range is to written D above the staff. This is a unique but very desirable chart to have in your library. You won't regret playing Whiplash! 10068794 Jazz Ensemble. . . . . . . . . . . . . 62.00 10096346 Additional Score. . . . . . . . . . . . 12.00
