Description
No So Fast! is a fun-loving, good-feeling blend of reggae and jazz number by Rich Willey, expertly arranged by Gordon Goodwin. Your second alto sax player needs to double on piccolo on this. Rich also wrote a soli section that Gordon scored for the whole band. There is an optional open solo section (with solo backgrounds) for you to feature multiple soloists as you wish.
Written for five saxophones, five trumpets (solo 5th trumpet part can be played on trumpet or flugelhorn), four trombones, piano, guitar, bass, drums and added percussionist. The only doubling in this chart is ▪ alto 2 also plays piccolo.
The lead trumpet part goes up to a three leger-line E♭. This tune lies somewhere between Grade 5 and Grade 5.5. Chart length is 180 written bars, tempo is ♩ = 150 and the score is 22 pages.
