Blue

"Blue" is an 11 piece Chamber Jazz Piece. It deals with unique doubles in the sax section. The Trombone solo is more modal while the Piano solo is over the changes, which are a little challenging. It deals with elements of unison playing, dense voicings, and counter lines. There’s also a rubato solo piano section in the middle of the chart. A beautiful chart if you are trying to introduce different size ensembles to your students.
