Blue Samuel

Description

Recorded on the SWR Big Band CD Fun Time and adapted from the tune Blue Daniel, this chart romps along in “four” instead of “three” and sounds harder than it is. It features a sax chorus and solos by alto sax, tenor sax and trombone, along with some powerful ensemble choruses between optional solos. The tempo is a very comfortable 116 beats per minute. Saxophones and trombone play the melody on the first two choruses and a reprise at the end. Rhythm section parts are partially notated with chords cued.
Style: Medium Jazz
