Driftin' (2023)
7’
Big Band
Herbie Hancock, arr. Josh Gentile
My goal with this chart was to create a hip, difficult trombone soli (see video below) to rival those commonly given to the sax section. After the fake tag ending, there is a bluesy, open vamp that allows the soloists to stretch out over chaotic backgrounds. Driftin’ is a tune that will get stuck in your head and keep you grooving long after the cutoff. This arrangement makes a very effective closer. Appropriate for collegiate and professional bands.
NOTICE: Purchase includes both score and parts.
