Movement I (of 7) of the Cuban Fire Suite.  Bob Curnow brings you yet another epic Metheny/Mays masterpiece.  Johnny Richards at his best! A very playable chart without a lot of range concerns for brass.
Have You Heard (edited v.) - Metheny / arr. Curnow Have You Heard (Pro) - Metheny / arr. Curnow Heat of the Day, The - Metheny & Mays / arr. Curnow
 This arrangement is a bit easier than the Pro version because it does not change keys (to C# minor).  This is a TERRIFIC tune, full of the happy, spirited, hip melodic and harmonic stuff that we've all come to love about Pat's music.  If you know "The First Circle" or "Minuano," then you'll have some sense of what this incredible composition is all about.
