Take No Prisoners arranged for Jazz Dectet ♫ by Rich Willey
This was originally intended to be an opener, written for Maynard Ferguson’s Big Bop Nouveau and was later arranged for 17-piece big band with guidance from Mike Abene.
A few years later this seven-horn reduction was prepared for a concert and this ten-piece chart has been longing to be played again ever since.
Suggested price: $40.00
Description
This was originally intended to be an opener, written for Maynard Ferguson’s Big Bop Nouveau, so you might want to try it as an opener.
Tempo is ♩=220, 198 written measures. Difficulty level is intermediate to advanced. Between the challenge of a brisk tempo and the soli section that requires piano, bass and guitarists to play single-note lines, this leans toward an advanced level of difficulty.
Parts come in a PDF file that you will be able to download immediately after your order is processed.

Here are a couple of sound clips from a live performance (part of the head and part of the soli):
