    the part starting at 2.52 is quintuplets, and they are quite in time. (ten beats to a bar)

    bar 32, the half note Eb comes in on beat 3, not in the next bar, so you can eliminate the 2 half note rests

    Good job here. So many of Sonny's note slides, bending and the like are hard to capture--notation wise.

  • @Thouveninpascal

    Bar 122 and six bars after , are you sure about the rhythm? If you picked up with a sequencer, it sould have played it with a rhythm section, I think the phrase is twice quicker; Rollins was a great specialist of "eighth note triplets".
    The great advantage of the sequencer is to hear what we transcribe.

  • @SoaringTrumpet
    @SoaringTrumpet 11 років тому +1

    Good call. It threw me off that suddenly those measures, as notated, were going by at twice the speed since the triplets should be closer to 8th notes, not quarters. But you rightly point out that triplet feel is incorrect either way, it's groups of 5 notes every 2 beats.

  • @SoaringTrumpet
    @SoaringTrumpet 8 років тому +4

    As DangerDancer69 and themadtrombonist pointed out a couple of years ago, 2:50 is completely off. It's 5 notes every 2 beats, not 3 every 2 beats (quintuplets, so 10 notes to a bar). Please put a note in the video for people to read, or update that section of your transcription. I am not here to nitpick, but it's incorrect and misleading to any players looking for how this solo is played. Notes are right, but rhythm not.

    I just listened to a 10h European podcast radio show on Sonny Rollins (yes, 10x 1h, covering 1951-2001 !!!). My opinion of Rollins is that it seems very overrated to me. First of all as a player, he does not seem to me better than Johnny Griffin, Stitt, Roland Kirk, Phil Woods, Lateef ... but enjoys a much more important reputation ... and unjustified in my opinion. Ok he plays well, but not better than the musicians I mentioned. In terms of composition, he did not compose anything, everyone knows that St Thomas is a Caribbean folklore already recorded by Randy Weston in 1955 under the title Fire Down There. His other compositions from the 50s ... well, Oleo, Airegin etc ... this can in no way be compared to the compositions of Trane, Bird, Monk or Shorter ... also, his playing and his sound are terribly degraded after 1966 (36 years). It seems that he was traumatized by the arrival of Ornette, Trane, Ayler ... In the 60's he tried to be more free than Ayler, more calypso / blues than Ornette, and more mystical than Trane, but he didn't. did not succeed. Then in the 70s / 80s he tried to be funky, disco ... with really ridiculous and cheesy results ... Did he want to be funkier than James Brown himself? Also, in the radio show they say that he was paid current $ 300,000 for himself to record the Nucleus album (so listen to the result !!!!), and that, for his concerts, his financial claims were unrealistic, only the big festivals could afford it. He played with the Stones but didn't want to go on tour with them because, according to Jagger himself, he wanted too much money! I mean, I'm not making anything up here. In my opinion, he should have remained what he was before, a disciple of Bird at the Tenor, and quit at the age of 40 to leave a quality job, and without trying to follow fashion.
    Thank you for not insulting me because I have documented myself on Rollins and I like to have constructive discussions without being attacked on my person.

      Bravo ! You clearly understood something essential : you'll never be famous as a saxophonist, and what's left to you as the unique chance to get some notoriety is trying to become the stupidiest commentator about Sonny Rollins. I must admit that you're gifted in that area ! ...LOL

  • @themadtrombonist
    @themadtrombonist 11 років тому +12

    So the point of doing a transcription is to figure out what someone did in a solo if that's what you're transcribing. It doesn't do you a lot of good to slap a "played out of time" bracket over the measures you can't figure out and post it to UA-cam. Finish your homework before you expect the internet to pat you on the back.

    • @stevesharptrumpet
      @stevesharptrumpet 6 років тому

      We should all do our own transcriptions! He's saying the "out of time" bracket is likely missing something important and as such, it's not as helpful (To Jacob) as it potentially could be.

      @JanM351531351 5 років тому +6

      No transcription can capture all aspects of the music, even more so with Sonny Rollins who is a master of expression & phrasing. If you planned on just reading this without doing any listening to play it *exactly* like the record, then you are a massive idiot. Transcriptions are guidelines, not written truth.
      Though I must say Sonny Rollins never ever plays out of time.
