    it's a soprano trombone not a tenor and TURN ON CLOSED CAPTIONS. also this transcription is kinda bad, find some more recent ones on my channel:))
    0:40 Andrew Huang bottom right
    Notes and corrections:
    Probably should be a very very fast 4/4 technically with the head being mainly crotchets
    Bari sax should really be in treble clef. The Musescore file is available in the download link so you can just swap it. Didn't know this at the time :)
    Error in soprano trombone part bar 148 where an interval is missed and the final note he plays should be on the first beat of bar 149.
    Bar 102 first note is clearly supposed to be a Bb.
    Bar 174 I missed out the last note of the bar (rhythm shown in bar 176)
    Bar 188 the Ab in the band is a phantom note and shouldn't be there

      also im not 100% sure but i think the trombone part(excluding s. trombone)should be in bass clef as trombone is not a typically a horn that is transposed to other clefs.then again im not sure how the music is meant to written

      The second nope is a 5 over 4 polyrhythm, underlying 16th note is the same but suddenly the pulse feels 20% slower for a few seconds (5 beats in the original pulse against 4 "quintuplet" beats) - wonderful way to momentarily have the music feel like its coming off the rails, only to bring it right back into the pocket.
