THE STAMPEDE 2 - Free Jazz Leadsheet

"The Stampede 2" continues the energetic performance of the 1926 Fletcher Henderson recording featuring Coleman Hawkins. This section of the tune showcases further ensemble interplay and extended solos that follow on from the first part.

The continuation emphasizes the driving rhythms and bold melodic lines introduced in "The Stampede 1," highlighting the early development of big-band arranging and Hawkins’ influential tenor saxophone style. Musicians and historians often study both parts together to appreciate the full scope of Henderson’s innovative approach to early jazz orchestration.

While presented as two separate sections in archival recordings, "The Stampede 2" is inseparable in style and spirit from the first part, preserving the momentum and excitement that made the piece a landmark in 1920s jazz.
