A Fun, Challenging Groove!
As an adult learner, I love a good challenge, and this 'Funky Cha-Cha' by Arturo Sandoval is it! Playing this vibrant music is incredibly rewarding. While Grade 5 is advanced, the energy of the Cuban funk style makes practicing feel less like work. It's exhilarating to play along and hear those dynamic parts come together. Perfect for an ambitious hobbyist jazz group.

Solid Chart for the Book
Arturo Sandoval's 'Funky Cha-Cha' is a solid, professional-grade chart for a jazz ensemble gig. The arrangement is tight, incorporating that classic Cuban funk blend, and the parts are well-laid out for quick sight-reading. It's a high-energy piece that's sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Solos for tenor and trumpet are clearly marked. Definitely a keeper for the band's repertoire.

Dynamic Piano Support in a Stellar Ensemble Chart
As a collaborative pianist for jazz ensembles, this 'Funky Cha-Cha' score is excellent. The piano's role is expertly crafted to provide rhythmic drive and harmonic support, seamlessly blending the Cuban and funk elements. It doesn't merely double the melody, allowing the horns to shine, but significantly anchors the groove. A robust accompaniment part that strengthens the overall dynamic and powerful sound.

While challenging, the arrangement provides great opportunities for advanced students to develop phrasing and improvisational concepts, especially with the tenor and trumpet solos. A must-have for a serious high school or college jazz program.
