Edition: Jazz Quintet Arrangement (2 Horns with Rhythm)

Description: WALTZ - MEDIUM

Publisher: Second Floor Music/Hal Leonard

QUINTET INSTRUMENTATION

This waltz is quite unusual, as you would imagine from the title. The horn melody is accompanied by written-out parts for the Vibes (or Piano) and Bass and the Drums. It starts with a double time feel; the bridge is in a 9/8 feel. This arrangement allows you to take a step toward the avant-garde.

SOLOS: These solo changes are a good example of planing chords that move up and down by half and whole steps instead of according to the rules of traditional harmony. These changes are paticularly good for encouraging motivic development and are perfect for a young improviser who's ready for the next big step.
