Journey to Recife

Description

Composed in the early 1960s, this marvelous bossa nova may not be as well known as some, but is no less attractive, especially arranged here for young bands by Terry White. A brief duet of trumpet and tenor gives way to the saxes, then ultimately nice rich scoring for the entire band. Also included are solos for tenor sax and trumpet. Nice flow and pacing throughout.
