Additional info/contents	This medium-tempo swing chart has a cool, bluesy quality. Using an ever-changing palette of tone colors and textures, A Minor Shade of Blue also features many smaller ensembles within the overall group. A vibraphone part adds to the color, but is not required. In addition, there are no solos to worry about – just great ensemble writing that features every section while also combining sections for interesting colors. Fantastic writing for big band!
