LAND OF LYDIA

Kjos is proud to add the talented writing of trumpet player Jamey Simmons to our catalogue. As suggested by its title, this tune is based entirely around the Lydian sound, and will give your students ample time to explore this wonderful sonority in the context of a superbly written chart. Solo opportunities are provided for alto sax and trombone, but you can use this tune to discuss with your entire ensemble the possibilities of soloing over a Lydian chord progression.
