QUINTET INSTRUMENTATION 1st part: Trumpet, Alto Sax, C treble clef 2nd part: Tenor Sax, Alto Sax (Baritone Sax), Trombone Rhythm Section: Piano, Bass, Drums, Guitar FULL SCORE This medium uptempo composition contains catchy idiomatic melodies which will greatly enhance a jazz vocabulary. It also requires the rhythm section to show some independence. SOLOS: The A section generally stays within the C minor, G minor, B-flat major realm, while the bridge explores several more distant key centers. These changes are unique yet playable with a little practice.
