Hot to Trot

Latin-swing-Latin! If you like the Latin "thing" but are more comfortable with swing, this is the perfect chart to clearly teach the different rhythms, accents and styles of Latin and swing all in the same fun arrangement. In this Victor López original, the Latin "head" is stated by trombone, tenor, and trumpet, followed by a swing section with the bass player walking, and then right back to the Latin groove. It goes from a powerful build-up into a flexible solo space to a tenor solo and right into an interlude with a true Latin percussion section. Check out the "super-sax" soli for your saxes. Brass ranges to B-flat make this chart very playable. A winner!
