Jelly Roll

Jelly Roll (Young Edition) ** by Charles Mingus ** arranged by Sy Johnson. Score & Parts. Simply Mingus for Jazz Ensemble. Grade 4. Published by Hal Leonard.

One of the most engaging and lighthearted of all Mingus' compositions, this was originally meant to provide a musical bridge from Jelly Roll Morton to Mingus' own unique compositional voice. Here is a marvelous version for big band that alternates between a medium slow 2-beat feel and straight ahead swing. Includes solos for trombone, alto and trumpet.
