Steely Dan – arranged for brass quintet
This brass quintet arrangement of Reelin’ In the Years stays rhythmically faithful to the original recording, capturing the laid-back yet tightly coordinated groove that defines Steely Dan’s sound.
Notated in 12/8, the trumpet 1 line closely follows the original vocal rhythms, creating a driving, syncopated lead part that anchors the ensemble. Inner voices are actively engaged throughout, particularly in the B section, where rhythmic clarity and ensemble coordination are essential.
This is a groove-based, rhythmically demanding arrangement best suited for experienced quintets comfortable with compound meter, funk-influenced phrasing, and precise ensemble timing. When the feel locks in, the result is a highly satisfying and stylistically authentic performance.

2 Trumpets, Horn, Trombone, Tuba
