Though the vocalist (or tenor sax, if no vocalist is available) is the primary feature, this unique chart showcases the whole band and its ability to establish a convincing Latin groove. Here are a few helpful rehearsal suggestions: HORNS: Pay particular attention to articulations -~ really bite into the short notes! Avoid the temptation to rush anticipations. BASS: While it may feel unnatural, try to play the written part in the salsa section. If you can't make it groove with this pattern, change the bass line so you play on "one" (like a samba). Most importantly, it should feel good! DRUMS: Use the four-bar solo before bar 163 to set up the swing feel, perhaps by splitting it evenly between the two styles -- playing the first two bars in Latin, then the last two bars in more of a swing mode. SOLI, BARS 64-92: Trumpet, alto sax, vocalist and guitar should work on this section until their phrasing is consistently pre- cise and together. Finally, the rhythm section's main objective is to groove as hard as possible. Don't let the time drift carelessly between swing, salsa and the half-time feel at the end. ABOUT THE ARRANGER MATT HARRIS @ Based in Los Angeles, Matt is in demand as a keyboardist, composer and arranger, and clinician. After com pleting his undergraduate degree at the University of Miami and his masters degree at the Eastman School of Music, he toured with Maynard Ferguson and Buddy Rich; both leaders performed and recorded his charts, many of which are featured in the Kendor jazz catalog. Matt recently made his recording debut as a leader on Voss Records. 96It Don't Mean A Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing sand (1670) S 4 vl Fo aes er oe = = ——= “eth aoe peel opal 8 pom | t i = Tea a) oe Friis meet “ed # Fri — —— a . 3 me Ce Sy6 Ui t ee viel “aise ener EoD pT pcan) ig SS) ake ad Tone _ nee alFT OWT MEAN A THING = 49 @ s00 west a) ahs zg ROE cans we, beet eB thd 08 NCS aa Se 38 5 aoe TaN ph a Te oP Fal TEM pol ge cr sri il FT DONT MEAN A THING «12 Seo vee!
