This arrangement is a wonderful alternative to the original and demands an elegant interpretation of the melody, proper improvisation and stamina from the soloist to the final chord.(Absolutely confident lead trumpeters might even dare to present the final melody part (beginning with the upbeat to bar 61) an octave higher...) Soloists: 1st Trumpet / Piano (Keyboard).

In addition, each individual player has to master her/his sheet quite soft (mp) throughout the entire piece - with the exception of a short passage. If these elementary details are observed, this nice tune is a treat for the audience as well for each player.

Frederick #647994. Published by P. R. Frederick (A0.1043304). Burn is a hard driving funk style chart scored for jazz band. At a tempo of 130 beats per minute it really does burn. The piece opens with a strong rhythmic figure played by the entire band based on quartal harmony. Then the main melody enters in a soli passage for the saxes. Ist trumpet must be able to hit a Bb above the staff on this one. Room for solos is provided. It would make a great addition to any program. After teaching music in the PA public schools for over thirty years I found that there were never enough good quality, accessible arrangements available. Hopefully this piece will help remedy that situation.
