Recorded on the “The New Sound of Maynard Ferguson and his Orchestra 1964,” this is an edited version of the chart (instrumentation 5 saxophones, 4 trumpets, 4 trombones, Piano, Guitar, Bass and Drums) as composed by one of the most creative writers in jazz history, Willie Maiden. This v. works very well. What you'll be hearing is the professional version recorded by Maynard. Curnow has taken Maynard’s super-high lines and incorporated them into the chart so that there are no super-human concerns in that respect. There is also the Pro version available with original instrumentation. This piece has a great feel to it, moving through a lovely melody to solo space for many players and back to a cool, quiet ending. This one will make you and your audience want to dance. 5-4-4-4
