Audio Sample:

Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Contemporary - Medium Difficult

Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

Commissioned by the Monterey Jazz Festival for the 2007 Next Generation Jazz Festival, this chart falls in that small space between Ornette Coleman and Radiohead, with a bevy of odd-metered phrases, several certified "dominant-free" solo sections and far too many hemiolas to count. After an aggressive Ornette-inspired unison riff in the horns, the tune takes a major left turn with a creepy bass ostinato underneath a crunchy ascending melodic line. Though the tune stays in 4/4 throughout (a remarkable first for Miley), many of the phrases involve oddly accented passages and/or seven or nine bar lengths. This is one great fun for the rhythm section and has some flexible solo space for alto, tenor, trumpet, tbone, drums and/or piano/guitar. Med-difficult.
