Nat Adderley - Work Song (Jazz Ensemble)

Composer: Nat Adderley
Arranger: Peter Blair
Style: Jazz
Level grade 2 (easy)
Score and set of parts

Work Song is one of the best jazz classics ever in a minor key.
The original Nat Adderley recording is the starting point for this new arrangement.
After the first time through the head (by the trumpets and altos, of course!), the stop time section from the original is used with the harmonized melody.

There is a solid shout chorus that leads to a soft ensemble passage before the solo written for alto saxophone.
