(Level IV) for band, V for soloists (8 Brass, lead trumpet high D written) A fast swing tune arranged in the same style as recorded by Dexter Gordon on his album Doin’ Alright. This chart features Dexter Gordon’s solo arranged as a sax section soli, followed by alto 1 and tenor 1 solos, and culminating with the two trading fours over very nice full band background support. There is also an unaccompanied chorus with just the two soloists before going back to the head. If you have strong bebop soloists in the alto 1 and tenor 1 chairs, this is a great chart to showcase them together.
