Power Move

Start your next concert with a powerful move! A perfect vehicle for teaching 16th-note rhythms, this funk chart has been carefully composed to make the rhythms easy to read and interpret. As is common in a lot of funk music, there is a good deal of repetition. The opening lick is played by the horns in a “rhythm out” feel—meaning that the rhythm section is not providing a groove at the very beginning. Following the solos there is a short section of rhythm breaks that builds into a reprise of the introduction.
