After The Rain (1981) - big band by Sammy Nestico (Sammy Nestico Music)
AFTER THE RAIN

Make sure the time is moving straight ahead.?we?re not after ?pretty? here. The voicing at measure 69 sounds good if everyone takes some deep breaths and blow!

The Man is a Master
Well, what can I say Sammy? Who needs Sibelius... you write from your soul which is evident in this piece. Your intention is clearly stated in the solo section (no sound required). Improvisation is a wonderful gift that I hope to pass on to my students as they mature into the depths of musicianship. You are truely an outstanding composer with exquisite use of harmony. My students are going to love playing your material in the near future. Well done.
