2019-20 Jazz Band Auditions - Flute

  1. Play the Head from Bessie's Blues - Page 42 of Real Book 6th Edition 
  2. Play the etude listed below as "MS SOLO ETUDE - BESSIE'S BLUES" ***Note that the etude is written for Alto Sax.  Most Jazz Band pieces do not have a flute part written therefore flutes double the Alto Sax part.  The etude for flute will need to be transposed up a minor third (3 half steps) from the Alto Sax part.***
  3. ​Rest for one chorus (12 measures)
  4. Improvise for two choruses (24 measures)
  5. ​Stop playback track
