La Cumparsita (score)

$6.00

Gerardo Matos Rodriguez / Chris Sharp


This is a tour-de-force treatment of the world’s best-known tango in the style of Bill Holman’s rambling epics he wrote for the Stan Kenton band. A flamenco-style fanfare opens the piece followed by a ballad treatment of the B section, then the main tune in its familiar tango mode followed by an up-tempo samba version ending in an all-out fiery ensemble ending. In true Holman style, this passage is interrupted by a brief swing section. There are solos in the 1st tenor (written-out with changes) and the guitar (changes only)
