SUMMER SAMBA

This light-hearted melody is based on a recurring figure and is paired with a highly rhythmic and energetic accompaniment. The more relaxing middle section outlines the changing harmonies as it travels through many keys.

WALTZ FOR SALLY
This piece starts with a relaxed and sustained melody over an accompanying ostinato. The melody then develops into a more improvised style where the soloist can enjoy more freedom over the ‘jazz waltz’ accompaniment.

THE BIG BANDER
A grand beginning sets the scene for the opening theme which is to be played with a somewhat ‘laid back’ and relaxed swing feel inspired by the style of Count Basie. The second section uses many fp’s followed by dynamic swells.

PUT YOUR HOE DOWN!
Put on your hat and boots and get ready to dance as you have fun playing this piece based on traditional American Hoe Down music.

THE LAST ONE TONIGHT
In this jazz ballad, the melody often intensifies as it travels over the warm and changing harmonies in the accompaniment. The soloist can feel free to shape the melody expressively with lots of additional dynamics and musical embellishments that will enhance this style of music.

HEADWIND
This highly energetic piece is based on a minor pentatonic scale which occasionally shifts up a semitone: a technique often found in modern jazz pieces. There is a more relaxed middle section where the player can catch their breath before they dive back into the headwind!

ON LINE
A distinct ‘Gospel’ feel is the main influence in this piece. The soloist can bring out this style with the accents in the first section but adopt a more cantabile style of playing for the middle section.
