In Walked Bud (arr. Mark Taylor)

Written by jazz legend Thelonious Monk, “In Walked Bud” features a memorable melody and rollicking swing style sprinkled with unique “Monk-isms” that his music is known for. This terrific version for jazz ensemble features a front line of alto, tenor, bari, trumpet and guitar, alternating with passages for the full ensemble. Solos are included for trumpet and tenor sax. (Recorded by the Music For All High School Honor Jazz Band of America.)
