Mood Indigo
Words and music by Duke Ellington, Irving Mills, and Albany Bigard / arr. Vince Gassi
00-36053
First Year Charts for Jazz Ensemble
Grade: 1
This medium swing arrangement of the dreamy Ellington tune will cook at just about any tempo (though the recommended tempo is 108 BPM). The chart features a written tenor sax solo and a lot of interplay between the brass and saxes. It even has a 4-bar stop-time section for a rhythmic contrast. The Duke would be pleased that you're playing one of his songs on your next concert program.
