Arranged by Henry Wolking. Score and parts. Published by Walrus Music Publishing (WA.52485).

Style: Shuffle. Instrumentation: 5 Saxes (no doubles),4 trumpets, 4 Trombones, Guitar, Piano, Bass, Drums +optional vibes.Soloists: Tenor sax, trumpet, trombone, guitar. Rush Hour Shuffle was commissioned by the Cal State Northridge band for a premiere performance at the Pacific Coast Collegiate Jazz Festival at Berkely California. Director Joel Leach requested a sort of LA hip, laid-back, post Steely Dan chart that would also be strong enough for a centerpiece performance at a major festival. He got it. This 2013 revision is slightly different from the original in that the opening flute choral has been deleted, and the shout chorus has been somewhat simplified so the lead trumpet range doesnt exceed a written high E. There are no sax doubles and an optional vibe part is included. This is an exceedingly hip shuffle full of surprises. Trumpet 1 to written high E.
