Forty-Second Street

A swinging chart, direct from one of the most famous streets in New York City, Forty Second Street is a familiar melody that’s accessible for the young jazz player. Scored by Paul Cook, this chart goes from a minor to major key – let the students hear it and play it! Containing written solos for alto and tenor sax, this chart sounds full with reduced instrumentation of just three saxes, two trumpets, one trombone, and three rhythm, or it works great with standard instrumentation. This one is fun!
