Inspiration 

Jamie Roth
Grade 4

Brimming with optimism, this original chart from Jamie Roth pulls from gospel tradition in a bright and cheerful full-band setting. After a straight-eighth-note introduction builds to a huge plagal cadence, the band emerges in shuffle swing time with each section featured in turn. Solo changes are provided for Piano, Alto 1, Tenor 1, Trumpet 2, Trombone 2, and Guitar. A transcription of the Tenor Sax solo from the recording is provided. Detailed rhythm section parts include written bass lines and suggested piano voicings. Great writing with lots of tasty lines for every part in the band! (Top trumpet note: C6)
