(9 Brass - Optional 5th Trumpet) (Level 4) This is a roaring up tempo, exciting chart featuring hip, modal, pedal-point harmonies. Not for the meek, this chart alternates between contemporary swing and Latin feels and includes solos for 1st tenor saxophone, 2nd trumpet and drums. Lead trumpet to high F# (written), lead trombone to high Bb (4th ledger line). If you've got this horses, this is the chart for you!
