Wow! This is a show-stopping chart by arranger Alan Baylock of the Ellington/Tizol classic.

Features include plenty of solo space for tenor saxophone, brief written melody lines for various instruments, and lots of moving lines and sax solis. Lead trumpet range is to written D above the staff. Caravan is nothing short of spectacular.SKU: AL26885 -

Channel One Suite
Warner Bros. Publications is proud to bring you the Buddy Rich jazz classic CHANNEL ONE SUITE. This piece was one of Buddy’s signature tunes, and it is now in print for the first time ever. Tom Davis has faithfully transcribed this chart from the original recording. It’s a real challenge, but one your students will love. In order to make this chart more accessible to most bands, we have provided alternate trumpet parts that have been rewritten to omit some of the extreme upper register passages. This is a piece of jazz history, and either way you play it, this chart is a winner! (duration 10:43)
