Audio Sample:

Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Medium

Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

Anything but sleepy, "Bad Dream" begins with some tasty, swinging lines - think of an updated version of Basie's "New Testament" band - but it eventually descends into a disturbing nightmare, as implied by the title. The collage-like nature here - fusing chaos with classy vignettes - is reminiscent of some of Carl Stalling's cartoon music and the playful attitude helps make this piece so appealing. Based loosely on the harmony of "You Stepped Out of A Dream," this humorous chart features alto sax, piano and drums. No doubles (5, 4, 4, 4).

* "Bad Dream" was selected as the winner in the jazz song category of the Tenth Annual Independent Music Awards and was recorded on MacDonald's Juno-nominated CD, "Re:Visions."
