I. U. Swing Machine

David Baker's music is wonderful to play because of its originality and sense of adventure. This is no exception. Written for his amazing jazz ensemble at Indiana University, this chart, set in a fast swing style, just sails along at a fast clip, exciting all who hear or play it. The trumpet section plays the melody in unison and things swing on from there. There is solo space for alto, trumpet and trombone. There's also a killer sax section soli. Your band and its audiences will love this one!
