Jazz Ensemble Score & Parts

Soul Bagel

Originally composed to feature Clay Jenkins and Darryl White with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Jazz Orchestra, this chart deftly moves between a jazz waltz and straight ahead four-to-the-floor groove. This tune features accessible chord changes, a brief saxophone soli, ample solo space for two featured soloists (any combination of trumpet/trombone/saxophone), and clever background orchestration. This creative piece will be a great addition to any contemporary concert program! (Alto Sax doubles on Flute - Lead Trumpet to Eb6)

Pinch Me!

This arrangement of the Wayne Shorter original composition is based on the David Torres version as recorded by Pancho Sanchez on his album "Latin Spirits." Written in a 6/4 Latin groove with a bass ostinato pattern, the chart exudes excitement in the head, solo backgrounds, and shout chorus. Optional solos are available for any instrument and this version works great in this Latin style groove.

Juju

An exciting swing chart based on various melodic lines that come together to form a vigorous contrapuntal texture. Trumpet solo begins in similar swing style, then transitions to half-time funk with a strong backbeat. 2 trumpets double flugelhorn.
