Jim Mahaffey: 10 Short Chorales: Jazz Ensemble: Score

1. FOURTHS: A medium-tempo swing with chord progression by fourths.2. PITCH-MATCHING: Bright swing with cross-sectional pitch-matching in Concert Bb and F.3. MODAL WALTZ: Moderate swing in 3/4 that employs the Cand F dorian modes.4. FULL CIRCLE WITH SAX UNISON: Chords in the circle of fourths (key: F Concert) with a unison sax line to aid tuning.5. BONE-MODALE: In a groove a la Miles Davis and in the G minor mode the'bones are in unison.6. COOL BOSSA: Concert F laid back and lush. Great for sectional/tutti balance and for phrasing the bossa.7. LIP-SLUR CHROMATIC: A cut-time lip slur workout for the brass with sax chordsdescending in half-steps.8. IT'S THE Bb GOSPEL: A moderate gospel swing with a unison melody line passed around the sections plus a big finish for practicing dynamics.9. SAMBANICE: Concert Bb with an easy“two” feel. Unison lines and nice chord changes for sectional and ensemble listening.10. TRUMPET-TUNE: This medium swing in Eb gives trumpets the lead over a sax/'bone rhythmic backup figure.
