Motor City

Jazz Ensemble Level 1.5

The title Motor City refers to music of Detroit and the styles associated with Motown records. Concentrating on building confidence in the inexperienced rhythm section, with riff based melodic ideas in the wind players, Motor City provides an opportunity for young jazz musicians to develop their skills in the jazz ensemble environment. A catchy groove at around 130 bpm will have them motoring along. Playable with optional reduced or expanded instrumentations.
