Cloud Fields by Kim Richmond Big Band - Sheet Music

SKU: WA.50449

This short composition (2pages) has a sweeping angular melodic line intially stated in the low instruments over a Latin (Bolero) rhythm. The melody works its way upward through different sections, and after its full statement, gives way to an impressionistic interlude. A more dramatic restatement of the theme follows a short and light "cool" tenor saxopnone solo. The tune ends softly with a surprising but understated chord change. Solos: tenor sax. Two versions of woodwind parts provided: 1) Doubles: 1. Alto sax/flute; 2. Alto sax/flute; 3. Tenor sax/clarinet; 4. Tenor sax/clarinet; 5. Bari sax/bass clarinet (this version is preferred). 2) All saxes, no doubles. Optional parts for French horns (alternate parts for Tpt 5-6 provided), tuba, and percussion (mallets and hand-percussion.) 5, 5, 4, Tuba, percussion, G, P, B, D.
