Performed in rehearsal here by Doctor Ohm Digital Jazz Orchestra.
Approx. 10 minutes. Rumble is composed for 5/4/4/4 jazz orchestra. Solos can be opened up for several players in the band, but are explicitly written for trumpet 2, trombone 2, and lead alto. The piece is a play on classic boogaloo and tunes like Lee Morgan’s Sidewinder. This is an adaptation of a piece originally recorded on the album Justin Morell Septet.
The dynamic marking “m” is used throughout to indicate “mezzo”, or medium volume, in place of the more typical “mf” and “mp”.
Instrumentation: [5, 4, 4, 4] 2 alto, 2 tenor, baritone (doubles bass clarinet) saxophones; trumpets 3 & 4 double flugelhorn.
Score is available for free here, and is featured in the video above. Purchase includes the complete set of parts. As with all music on this site, parts are designed to be printed in booklet form on 17 x 11 paper, but can be printed and taped on letter-size paper.
