The rhythm section parts are fully notated and the trumpet, tenor sax, trombone, and piano soloists will feel right at home playing over the 24-bar blues form. Duration 5:30.

Fred has a knack for creating interesting music that sounds totally fresh and is easy to play. This unique bossa nova uses inverted pedal point to provide the ideal tuning pitches for each section of the band...including bass and guitar! The beauty of the chart is that your group will be playing ôcool sounding music while they're tuning. Perfect Pitch is also an ideal concert opener for a young jazz group-they'll be able to play with confidence from the first measure.
