17 Mile Drive

This medium difficulty chart refers to the scenic road through Pebble Beach and Pacific Grove on the Monterey Peninsula in California, much of which hugs the coastline and passes famous golf courses, mansions, and cypress forests. The composer's frequent use of suspended chords suggests the grandeur of the region. Set in a catchy rock shuffle and using contemporary harmonic techniques, this one grooves from start to finish. Sophisticated rhythmic content enhances the memorable melody and tenor sax has solo changes. A fairly accessible chart, it will definitely sustain the interest of medium to advanced players and soloists!
