Knee Deep In Rio (T.Garling)

“Knee Deep In Rio (T.Garling)” is a medium-difficulty big band arrangement credited to Maynard Ferguson, with Tom Garling listed as the original composer. The catalog identifies the work for big band and does not specify a style, so this listing avoids assigning a genre or performance character beyond the documented ensemble format. The arrangement is cataloged at 48 pages and includes confirmed individual parts for eight listed instruments or sections: Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Piano, Bass, and Drums. This instrumentation gives directors and performers a clear view of the documented part coverage when preparing an ensemble set or reviewing suitability for their group. A conductor score is not confirmed in the supplied metadata and is therefore not described as included. The listed difficulty is medium, providing a practical reference for ensembles assessing the piece alongside their available rehearsal time, personnel, and performance needs. Since no information is provided about composition date, duration, key, tempo, featured solos, voicings, modulations, or arranger intent, those details are intentionally omitted. This catalog entry focuses on the verified credits, format, page count, confirmed parts, and instrumentation for musicians and directors evaluating the arrangement. This is a medium-difficulty big band arrangement with 48 cataloged pages. Confirmed individual parts are listed for Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Piano, Bass, and Drums.
