Smooth As Silk
by Jon Phelps

Designed for jazz ensembles in the developmental stages, this very easy rock ballad is a perfect choice to feature your star trumpeter or alto saxophonist. Suitable for all performance situations, the integrity of the tuneful melody and the well-thought out instrumental backgrounds will make even the most inexperienced groups sound full and sophisticated. No improvisation is required of the soloist, brass ranges are very moderate, rhythm parts are fully notated, and developing drummers should not encounter difficulty with the basic 8/8 rock feel. A guitar chord chart by Jim Greeson is included in each set. Duration 4:30.
