About this arrangement

Jazz Ensemble Jazz Ensemble - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1389644 By Grover Washington Jr. By Grover Washington Jr. Arranged by Mike Michalicek & Gerald Ramsey. Jazz,Soul. 60 pages. Gerald Ramsey #973223. Published by Gerald Ramsey (A0.1389644). Grover Washington, Jr., recorded this composition on his Winelight album with a stellar rhythm section of Richard Tee, Rhodes piano; Eric Gale, guitar; Marcus Miller, bass; Steve Gadd, drums; and Ralph MacDonald, percussion. Despite the subtitle, this piece is not a samba, but rather a soulful solo vehicle for Grover and members of the rhythm section. This arrangement is written flexibly so that it could be performed by a full big band, by solo alto sax with rhythm section, or by big band with a featured alto soloist. The arrangement can be opened up for multiple soloists. Young soloists can improvise very effectively using a g minor blues scale, although the piece is not a blues. More advanced players can use the provided sheets with the chord changes transposed for each instrument. The MIDI-rendered recording provides an adequate representation of this arrangement, but check out Grover’s recording on the streaming platform of your choice for an outstanding model to emulate.
