SKU: A0.775299
By Chicago. By Robert Lamm. Arranged by Alex Wilson. Pop,Rock. Score and parts. 28 pages. Alexander Wilson #5299121. Published by Alexander Wilson (A0.775299).Written by Robert Lamm and recorded in 1969, "25 or 6 to 4" is one of the band Chicago's most well known hits. There was speculation about the meaning of the title, including one hypothesis that led the song to be banned in Singapore for over 20 years for "alleged allusions to drugs", but according to the composer the song is about writing music in the early morning, and the title is nothing more salacious than 3:35am (25 to 4) or 3:34am (26 to 4).
In any case, this song remains a classic of the rock genre 40 years after its publication, and is arranged here for 10 Bb trumpets. Most of the higher and more difficult licks are concentrated in the top 4 parts, and the 1st part requires particular skill (leading me to mark this arrangement's difficulty as "advanced intermediate"), but each trumpeter involved will have have at least one moment of guitar-solo glory. Perfect for a large trumpet ensemble with diverse skill levels.
