This swinging chart has it all -- swinging melody lines, open solos, and a roaring shout chorus. It is a terrific introduction to the blues for young bands. A part of the Jazz In Concert Series, The Night of the Coyote is flexibly orchestrated so that it can be played with as few as 9 players. Additionally, everyone in the ensemble has an opportunity to improvise in the open solo section, and the set includes two suggested solos and a CD with a solo practice track, to facilitate successful improvisation.
