Quiet Lady

As recorded by The Vanguard Orchestra on their album Thad Jones Legacy, this expressive journey opens with a brief ensemble statement followed by a full-length piano solo, ensemble interlude, and a solo chorus for trumpet that leads directly into an exuberant ensemble shout. A 12-bar piano solo and articulated ensemble ending provide the finishing touches. Standard jazz ensemble plus 5th Trumpet; all saxes have opt. flute, clarinet or bass clarinet doubles.
