Big band (woodwind and trumpet doubles) - Level 5

SKU: NC.635

Composed by Rolf Johnson. This edition: Trumpet range to Eb6. Jazz, Rock. Score and set of parts. Published by UNC Jazz Press (NC.635).

(Level V) As recorded by the Mike Vax Jazz Orchestra on the CD, BIGBANDJAZZ.NET (Summit Records DCD 329). Jazz-rock reminiscent of Bitch's Brew. The main melody snakes its way chromatically around an extended C7 tonality, supported by a grooving bass line and multiple ostinati. The bridge section is a modal fugue, which meanders through a series of remote keys. After an extended soprano solo, the bass clarinet (or bari) provides an ad lib obligato as the band builds through a series of varied statements of the melody, leading to a big climax. Lots of intriguing textures, featuring flute, piccolo (opt.), clarinet, bass clarinet (opt.), soprano and flugel doublings. Electric piano and bass recommended. 9 Brass.
