A very hip samba! Scott Ragsdale composed and arranged this dynamic and high energy Latin samba with a melody that grabs you and makes this chart take off and soar. Stop time breaks throughout the melody and in the solos (written out or ad lib) for the 1st tenor, 2nd trumpet, and 1st alto add to the tremendous forward motion of this samba. Check out the open solo for Latin percussion, too. It's clear from the first note that this chart will keep every player on his or her toes. Quality writing! (4:33). |
