Phelps, Jon: Crunch Time

Swing

This piece utilizes a variety of rhythmic figures commonly seen in swing charts, and employs a tuneful melody supported by a simple, yet effective chord progression and solid orchestration. Designed to make developing groups sound their best, it features flexible instrumentation, very accessible brass ranges, completely notated rhythm parts, and a nice sax soli for a piece that is great fun to play and hear. Written or ad lib solos are provided for 1st Alto and 1st Trumpet. A guitar chord chart by Jim Greeson is included in each set.
