Jazz Ensemble 1st Alto doubles on soprano sax (standard jazz ensemble; 1st Alto doubles on soprano sax) - Grade 5

SKU: KN.52085

Composed by Charlie Parker. Arranged by John LaBarbera. Kendor Jazz Archive Series. Fast Swing. Score and set of parts. Kendor Music Inc #52085. Published by Kendor Music Inc (KN.52085).

This adaptation of the Charlie Parker classic features a fast swing tempo and the bop-style lines you'd expect, but it also pays tribute to Bird by casting selected horns in intimate, combo-like settings within the full ensemble format. The solo work goes to lead alto, and alternating sax and brass solis culminate in a shout that takes this chart out strong.
