Off Blue (Level IV) Medium swing chart in the tradition of 1960's Blue Note rhythm sections. It features a small group within the big band. Colorful harmony enhances a simple bluesy line. After an sfz chord, the bridge begins softly and three lines crescendo, leading to a climatic send off for the soloists. After solos there is an ensemble section featuring trombones first, trumpets second, and a short sax soli that brings back the original theme. 8 Brass
