Feels So Good—Chuck Mangione/arr.
Victor Lopez. Only rarely does a jazz
tune cross over to the pop charts the way
this Chuck Mangione classic did back
in the seventies! Flugelhorn solo on the
1st trumpet part is featured throughout
with the distinctive melody and then with
a written or ad lib solo along with a tenor
solo. The flugelhorn solo range is up to
an optional written high C, but the solo is
cued on the 1st tenor part as well. Victor's
arrangement brings this contemporary
gem within the range of the developing
trumpet player without losing any of
the hip appeal of the original. Here's a
perennially appealing, samba/rock chart
that will provide outstanding performance
opportunities for your band and soloist!
Highly recommended!

and rhythm section and is an excellent
opportunity to feature the guitarist, pianist,
bassist, and drummer in your ensemble.

and piano (electric, preferably) and electric
bass (trading twos with the brass). The
sax section gets an eight-bar soli before
the ensemble returns in full to lead us into
the open drum solo. A cascading horn line
closes out the chart. The title is derived
from this chart's chord changes, which
are loosely based on a minor version of
Gershwin's I've Got Rhythm progression.

range is to G.
