String Quartet No. 4

Skyliner

Centennial Celebration Overture

This jazz classic from Sonny Rollins features an uptempo Latin groove with alternating sections in swing. In this challenging yet great-sounding arrangement the head is treated in a tutti format for all 6-horns and the solo section is open for any player.

Solara (Concert March)

Noble Procession

In this riff-based jazz standard Michael Sweeney simplifies the figures just a touch to make it more playable by beginning groups but authentic enough that it still really swings! A great introduction to Sonny Rollins and with flexible solo opportunities using the blues scale.
