O Come, O Come Emmanuel arranged for jazz septet by Rich Willey

Description

This melody is anywhere from 500 to 600 years old but this arrangement spiffs it all up and lets it groove.

Arranged to be a part of a jazz Christmas concert, this groovy little chart lets the drummer play brushes and do some drum fills during the melody breaks à la “Cute”  by Neil Hefti.

39 written measures, ♩ = 120 (easy tempo) blowing over a minor blues on this flexible head arrangement written at an intermediate level of difficulty that is suitable for high school and above.

Parts for Trumpet 1, Alto Sax 2 or Trumpet 2, Tenor Sax 3 or Trombone 3, Trombone 4 or Baritone Sax 4, Piano/Guitar, Bass and Drums come as a PDF that you’ll be able to download immediately upon submission of your order.
