Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement
Description: Swing - Difficult
Publisher: Jazz at Lincoln Center
I took the sounds of the South and tried to integrate them with Northern sounds, particularly because Bearden was born in North Carolina but became known in Harlem during the Renaissance. I tried to combine all of the ideas of his paintings and it ended up turning into a mini suite. I was thinking about Bearden's collages 'Three Guitarists,' 'The Block,' 'The Block II,' 'Reclining Nude,' 'Conjuring Woman,' and 'The Piano Lesson' when I composed this piece. The whole thing moves from a Southern church sound into different tonal centers that are more urban.
