Clanks by Frank Foster Big Band - Sheet Music

By Frank Foster

2nd trombone is featured throughout this arrangement, opening with the melody written out for solo trombone playing funky using the plunger (ala the late Al Grey), then unison trumpets take over doing the same thing on the second chorus. After that it's all trombone on this medium tempo blues, first with the plunger, then open horn after the modulation from F to B-flat major. Saxes change to doubles on piccolo (or lead flute)...3 flutes, and bari sax to bass clarinet on the back half of the chart. Lead trumpet high is F4. If your trombone soloist can handle the plunger, this should be a nice little 3-plus minute feature.
