Giant Steps by John Coltrane/arr. Mark Taylor

[@BigPapaMitchell]

I love that the sax soli still takes a bunch of licks from the original coltrane solo, it sounds so good

[@annasundholm2090]

This is actually a really lit arrangement. I love the motifs from Coltrane's original solo in the soli.

[@TheNNote]

This arrangement is amazing! I love the Vibes at 0:45 !
And the sax solis at 0:59 and 1:18 are simply amazing!

[@DiegoRamirez-sv4pb]

I didn’t notice the vibes at first lol

[@EllingtonReborn]

Staying true to what the original was all about! Nice!

[@FacePomagranate]

I like the useless key signatures in the transposing instruments.

[@dishwasherdetergent3366]

yeah those are great

[@maxwellhanks4751]

@@dishwasherdetergent3366 it's meant to be atonal but somewhere in the process it's identified as c major or a minor

[@dishwasherdetergent3366]

@@maxwellhanks4751 uh yeah I know that
the reason it's c major/a minor is because they wanted an open key signature for the concert pitch instruments but instead of making it open across the entire score they just used c major/a minor

[@alenpoehlman5913]

Listen to it at 1.25x speed

[@Chang-hk5yh]

thank you so much

[@Alexcoman51]

Aka normal speed lol

[@charlesbarry2485]

Great big band arangement of a John Coltrane classic.

[@katznels5]

Could probably benefit from a tempo boost

[@EllingtonReborn]

Its not that far off.

[@synthguy7774]

Tap screen > Settings > Playback Speed > 1.25x
You're welcome

[@imploud]

I personally prefer this speed :P am a swing guy

[@GreenBoy9000]

There's a full recording on this arrangement on UA-cam at the original tempo.

[@jonathandilger1649]

"The Big Band" recorded it in the original tempo

[@dedede5586]

yooo the 5/4 is pretty good!

[@justxchoz]

fr. even the trombone 4/5 part ngl

[@kadenstewart7761]

It feels very giant and very steps.

[@Alexandre.Moonwell]

Best version so far, it's all about de SWING

[@canalbandashow]

Um som muito agradável 👏👏👏

[@ИванБорисов-у3ш]

[@PepperWilliams_songcovers]

[@c.h_sax]

BANGER

[@imploud]

The harmonics in 1:50 are weird

[@jonathandilger1649]

There's a full recording in the original tempo by "The Big Band" ua-cam.com/video/jnhCpIldKgM/v-deo.html

[@andylopez0731]

I've listened to this on Mark Taylor's album and IT'S SO NICE BEING ABLE TO SEE THE MUSIC. but the tempo is way under lmao

[@MemeMolester]

ikr it’s hard listening to giant steps this slow, still pretty good tho

[@reidgowan2670]

MemeMolester 1.25 is pretty close to original

[@mrjelen4198]

wow reaccs only

[@juniuschan3701]

1.25 sounds more satisfying for some reason

[@dedede5586]

yea that makes the tempo 300 which is way closer to the original

[@C_L_E_M_O]

Sorta want to see what it sounds like at the original tempo

[@ezraaboy9469]

Listen at 1.25 speed

[@xeon2773]

texas band kids: yeah i was sightreading this chart in middle school

[@idk7440]

I like the arrangement, but i think the tempo and feel takes away from the intensity of giant steps

[@padraicfanning7055]

You probably won't like Cory Henry's rendition.

[@davidh2721]

Cool

[@romehatsushiba1029]

good🙄

[@iamai151]

Please keep giant steps in combo music

[@Channel-xr5rs]

why

[@iamai151]

It just sounds a lot better and trombones shouldent be doing the main melody at the beginning in my part

[@Moinsdeuxcat]

@VipersHearing Yeah that's been like the main point of jazz since the very earliest ages to make new stuff from old stuff. My Favourite Things wasn't meant to be played on sax...

[@tlincicome2957]

And I can hear Tommy Flanagan saying don't record this piece without allowing me a little practice time. When we shut the door on possibilities and creativity we become stale.

[@nersina2]

speed 1.25x

[@ottolehikoinen6193]

Speed 0.75
