There should only ever be a single Alto 1 player in a big band, as it is their resposibility to dictate the articulation, dynamics, and other nuances to the rest of the section to create a coheasive section. If there are two players on the part, it becomes impossible for the other parts (Alto 2, Tenor 1/2, and Baritone) to match the lead Alto's style as there are now two competing interpretations. The only parts that can somewhat benefit from an extra player are Alto 2 and Tenor 2, as in school bands, these are often have weaker players assigned to them despite often being technically the most challenging. Any more than 7 sax players will result in the outer players being too far from the lead Alto player (who should be sat in the middle of the section) to hear the nuances clearly. In this chart however, due to the Lead alto being off in their own, the responsibility for leading the section falls on the 2nd Alto, so there can only be one player on that part for the reasons above.

That high e on lead alto was glorious

Hey I’m playing that
I was going to have the honor of playing the lead alto part, but our brass section begged our director to cut the piece
Aww, poor trumpets not getting every solo.
omg no 😭 the brass parts in this sound so nice with the alto tho (saying this as a trumpet player)
wimps they can’t do the sixteenth note eight note pattern
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar we just got this and the trumpet parts is sick
@@zazatya6241 Glad to hear!

Anyone who has performed this peice: was alto sax 1 all of the altos ones or was it a soloist or was it some other situation?

jazz is more of a one person on a part, but if it’s 2-3, it’s a soloist
The bass for this stuff is weird cuz mine starts as soon as the song starts
Great arrangement.
The hi -C was probably to much let alone the 16th notes.
