Ambiance [Ken:52021]

Ambiance. By: McPartland. Arr: Dodgion. Kendor Archive Editions. Instrumentation: standard jazz ensemble with opt. flute & soprano sax doubles on alto sax parts; solo flugelhorn.

As recorded by the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra in 1974 for their Potpourri album on the Philadelphia International label, this highly expressive ballad opens with an unaccompanied 20-bar piano solo before the band gets on board. Then a pair of duets for flugel-and-soprano and flute-and-bass take the stage, leading ultimately to a solo chorus for flugel. The chart closes quietly with brief trombone and arco bass solos. Duration ca. 7:25. .
