On YouTube, look up the Benny Benack Quintet & Jam at Smalls Live on 8/11/2021. See what happens at the 8:45 mark. A singer - horn player comes up to play with the band. He brings CHARTS. And everyone on the stage spends a moment looking at the chart, and then they launch into it.

And doing it in front of an audience, one that clearly has some folks who can play.
