(SMP-1096) James - Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays / arr. Curnow (Audio)

Grade: Medium-Advanced Composer: Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays Arranger: Bob Curnow Style: Fusion Solos: Piano, Soprano Performed by the Bob Curnow Big Band, Sierra Music Publications, Inc. is proud to produce the album and publish the charts from Bob Curnow's VOLUME 2 of the Music of Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays! Originally recorded on the Pat Metheny Group album "Offramp", this version of James is arranged for big band by Bob Curnow. Bob Curnow does his usual stellar job of arranging Pat Metheny's very popular tune "James," and he manages to add a lot of his own ideas to the arrangement. Soloists can be determined as you wish with a flexible middle section. This is a straight-eighth, Latinish chart with an abundance of saxophone solis and ensemble choruses. This requires soprano saxophone on the first woodwind part. Your band will love playing this infectious melody. 5-4-4-4 (with opt. 5th trumpet and trombone) Purchase here: https://www.sierramusicstore.com/Jame... Follow us on social media!
