Product Description
Fast! Thats the way to describe this arrangement. The rhythm section
is blazing (270 beats a minute!), but the horns are in half time. This
will be a work out for any rhythm section, but the horns will be able to
play it with ease. I like to put one arrangement on every record that
really pushes the players, and this is the ONE!!! You gotta check out
the audio sample on this one! This is the closer of the
concert/performance/service hands down. This one will take a little
work, but it will be well worth it. Dont let this one scare you. With
some work from just one soloist (listening to the demo), you can pull
this off and be so glad you did!
This is the most flexible Holiday/Christmas project you will ever find!
This arrangement features a soloist plus full big band. Here is where the unbelievable flexibility comes in!
There is a written out part for EVERY solo for trumpet, trombone, saxophone and a vocalist.
4 complete versions of this arrangement were recorded with each one featuring a different solo instrument.
(there is a trumpet, trombone, saxophone and vocalist version of the entire record)
Also, this arrangement was recorded with full big band, but you could
use a 2/2/2 horn section (trumpet/sax/trombone) if you do not have
access to all the players.
ANY size group. ANY soloist on ANY song. Maximum flexibility!
Instrumentation is:
Alto Sax 1 & 2
Tenor Sax 1 & 2
Bari Sax
Trumpet 1-4
Trombone 1-4
