Um Afortunado
This pretty Samba displays rich harmonic content and a lyrical melody that gives it a nice optimistic feel. The chart features a variety of orchestration textures: trombones with bucket mutes, a flute/flugelhorn/soprano sax trio, a sax soli with a flugelhorn lead, and a piano/guitar/vibes soli. The chord changes are fun to improvise on, and the solo section is structured so that you can assign each solo instrument as desired. This chart will be a cool breeze in the middle of your set! Trumpet high note is a written B above the staff, with the lead trombone high note being G-flat. Instrumentation and doubles: S/A/T/T/B Saxes; Alto Sax 2 doubles on Flute; Tenor Saxes 1 & 2; Baritone Sax doubles on Bass Clarinet; 4 Trumpets (all double on Flugelhorn); 4 Trombones (4th on Bass Trombone); Piano; Guitar (Acoustic nylon strings); Bass; Drums and Percussion (shaker, congas, triangle, vibes, mark tree).
