One of the favorites performed by the Duke Ellington Orchestra, Perdido is a happy and upbeat riff tune set in a swing style. This great sounding chart in the six-horn format (3 saxes, 2 trumpets, trombone and rhythm section) features variety in scoring, an open solo section, and a terrific shout chorus for the entire ensemble. Additional optional parts are included for alto, tenor and trombone. Perfect for additional opportunities for key players!
