Product Description

WATERMELON MAN- for Little Big Band- "Watermelon Man" is a classic jazz-funk tune composed by Herbie Hancock. It's notable for its catchy riff, infectious groove, and its evolution across different genres. This arrangement uses the original boogaloo groove from the 60s with some R&B spice mixed in. There are two solo sections which are offered to any of the players. Written for "Little Big Band". This format allows for a big sound using a cut down ensemble of 6 horns: 2 Trumpets, Alto, Tenor and Bari Sax., Trombone plus rhythm section. Playable by rhythm section and as few as 3 horns (tpt. alto sx, trb. Then tenor sx., bari sx, and 2nd tpt.). Alternate parts are included. Trumpet up to Bb5 (written). Intermediate level.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
