Big band - Medium to difficult

SKU: WA.50441

Arranged by Kim Richmond. Score and parts. Published by Walrus Music Publishing (WA.50441).

The bass line pattern provides the foundation for this Latin flavored piece, perhaps evoking images (with its exotic melodic line, featuring cup-muted trumpets against woodwinds) of "South Seas" locales. The title is the term for a shade of green. The half-time and double-time do not signal a change in feel, which stays basically the same throughout. At some spots, the drums changes to more of a march-like beat, hopefully with a syncopated jazz approach. Solos: Trb 2 (cued for alto sax, tenor sax); guitar (cued for tpt 3) 2 sets of Woodwind parts: Version 1 (preferred version): 1.-alto sax/clarinet/flute; 2.-alto sax/clarinet; 3.-tenor sax/clarinet. 4.-tenor sax/clarinet 5.-baritone sax/bass clarinet. Version 2 is saxophones only. Tpt mutes are strongly suggested to accomplish the proper sound of the piece (tpt 1: cup and Harmon; tpt 2: cup; tpt 3: cup and straight; tpt 4: cup and straight). Trbs need no mutes.
