New Rochelle
by Bob Mintzer

This chart is the only non-Latin tune on Bob's Latin From Manhattan CD! Nominated for a Grammy award in the best instrumental composition category, it also appears on the Yellowjackets' Blue Hats CD (Warner Bros.). In his score notes, Bob says this optimistic, uplifting tune should be played with swing inflections, and urges directors to play either or both professional recordings for their students so they begin rehearsals with a definite sense of the correct funk-shuffle feel.
