    Professional Editions for Jazz Ensemble - Grade 5
    Composed by Yoko Kanno for the Japanese anime television series Cowboy Bebop, the tune Tank! has taken on a life of its own. John Wasson's driving Latin funk version was written for his Strata Big Band and recorded on the album Chronicles. It features the quirky melody, sizzling brass punches, solo space for alto sax, and shows off every section of the band. A real screamer!

      ​@@abeahmed2581 I mean, it's basically a 12-bar blues song arranged for a jazz band in the first place, so it makes sense that the original alto solo plays more like a blues guitar solo. This is a much jazzier arrangement, so the jazzier solo fits well here.

    I was expecting this to be incredibly cringy, but honestly a really killer arrangement that doesn’t lose any of the craziness of the original chart. Lead trumpet parts are pretty much all there in the same octave but just broken up in different parts of the chart. I’m not sure I’d choose to play this when the original quite frankly is easier given the length component with all of the hardest lead parts still in there, but I love it all the same.

    • @Davis.smith.weightlifting
      @Davis.smith.weightlifting Рік тому +2

    I think the part that really grinded my gears was right before the solo break, the horns don't end on the E7 chord, which kind of felt a little yassified to me
    Although it could just be the upper register C's
    Idk, I feel like it would sound better with only the Low C's, or none at all
