both tenor players. Sample tenor solos are provided, the lead trumpet range is to written high

Work Song—Nat Adderley/arr. Erik Morales. Wow! If Nat Adderley could hear this chart
on his iconic jazz standard, he would be pleased! The first statement stays very close to the
original, which is a good thing. The solos are for written or improvised alto and trumpet, and the
solo backgrounds are simply wonderful. This swinger plays well at about 176 bmp, has excellent
full-ensemble passages, a bari sax and rhythm section break before the last chorus, an exciting
shout chorus, and great development. This chart has it all! Our highest recommendation!
