Introduction to a Samba

Originally recorded by Cannonball Adderley on his album Domination, and inspired by Oliver Nelson, Bob Curnow's adaptation of Introduction to a Samba features an alto saxophone and trumpet duet stating the melody supported by a traditional samba feel. There's plenty of solo space for alto saxophone and trumpet as they further enjoy the spotlight. The drummer then has a short solo which leads back to a restatement of the theme. All ranges are very moderate. This chart is a great addition to any program needing a solid Latin chart to provide variety and spice!
