Incident @ Perkins depicts, in the hard bop style, what can happen if you forget to ask for a plastic fork to go with your to go order of pie: sweet, sweet petty theft! This chart is full of parallel fifths, so theory police, get out your red pencils. Seriously, this chart is a big band romp in the hard bop tradition. Inspired by real-life events, the tune is somewhat Brecker-ish in nature. The piece climaxes in a tug-of-war between the ensemble and the drummer. Who will win? It doesn't matter, because everyone gets pie.

Soloist: scored for Alto 1,tenor 1,trumpet 2,trombone 1, or rhythm. Also space for the drummer. Tpt. to written D. 5/5/4/G/Vibes/P/B/D.
