Description
Roger Schmidli
From a breathy tenor sax solo to the wailing climax from the whole band tutti before the bass and piano sign off with their own little moment at the end, widely contrasting dynamics and a demand for courageous but precise and articulate playing, this chart really does force the band members to take A Good Hard Look. This Basie styled chart, for a bit of a change, hands over the main melody to the real stars of the band: the trombones!
