Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most

Recorded by the Ashley Alexander Big Band in the early 1980's, this fabulous feature for solo trombone or flugelhorn consists of three distinct sections -- a slow ballad opening and closing with a fast swing interlude between. Each ballad segment ends with a solo cadenza, and an open section during the swing portion leaves room for other players to flex their solo chops. Rhythm section parts are partially notated with chords cued. Duration 6:25.
