Say What?

In the relaxed swinging tradition of Sammy Nestico and Count Basie, the title refers to the conversation that begins in the melody as two groups call and respond to each other. Trumpet range is to written G; trombone range is to F. After the melody is thoroughly discussed, the chart moves on to a 16-bar written piano solo which is followed by a 16-bar written tenor sax solo. Chord changes are provided for both. A powerful shout chorus is followed by a return to the bridge and then a final hard-swinging hurrah before the classic Count Basie piano ending.
