Composed by Jones. Arranged by Carubia. Jazz Ensemble. Extra full score. C.L. Barnhouse #SCM-1093-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.SCM-1093-01). This chart was written when Thad lived in Denmark and was named after jazz organist Rhoda Scott. This writing is typical Thad that was a favorite of the Mel Lewis Orchestra and it is still played by the Village Vanguard Orchestra. This medium tempo AABA composition displays the classic Thad Jones harmonic and melodic approach to writing for a big band. Not as well known as Don’t Get Sassy or Tip Toe as it was first recorded in Denmark and then again with the Mel Lewis Orch on the The Definitive Thad Jones CD’s recorded in the US in 1988, but it is a great one. Written solos. Written ranges: Trp. 1 (A), Trb. (G) , Alto (D).
