Smackdown (Score)

Description

Series: Jazz Summit Commissioned for the Cardinal Vaughn Memorial School Jazz Band in London, England, this swing shuffle original for proficient bands will energize players and audiences. Equally appropriate as an opener, closer or anything in between, solos are offered to trumpet and trombone, but blues-based changes mean that the solo section can be expanded for other players if desired. Afterward there is a great stop-time sax soli with trumpet lead that yields to another solo section with changes cued in the saxophone parts. An exciting shout chorus follows, ending with an open drum solo before the final chord. Rhythm section parts partially notated with chords cued. Duration 5:15. Available in SmartMusic.
