Ahead of the Curve

Fast-paced and hard-swinging, this exciting opener will set the tone for any concert or festival performance. This original features a catchy melody, strong ensemble writing, and engaging interplay between sections. Despite its tempo and moments of harmonic variety, the chart remains highly accessible to developing bands. The solo section offers a slight departure from the main changes and includes clear suggested solos to support young improvisers. Bold, vibrant, and uplifting, it's an impressive addition to any jazz program!
