“Why Not?” is the most well-known piece by Dominican Republic pianist/composer Michel Camilo. It appeared for the fist time on his 1984 album record “French Toast”. He re-recorded it in 1985 for the “Why Not?” album which is among his best-selling to date. The song has also been recorded by other artist like the vocal group The Manhattan Transfer.
“Why Not?” is a modern latin-jazz classic and this arrangement for Brass Band captures the featureless and musical challenges of the original piece.
