QUINTET INSTRUMENTATION:
1st part: Trumpet, Alto Sax, C treble clef

Rhythm Section: Piano, Bass, Drums, Guitar Includes full score. Extempore is a blues, alternating bluesy phrases with a more advanced sounding vocabulary. The head is in a question and answer format between the horns and the rhythm section. The changes behind the head are heavily-altered blues changes, and the melody shows how an outside musical vocabulary can be incorporated into a blues and sound convincing. While technically involved, it's very playable and because the head is only twelve bars long, it's easily mastered. SOLOS: The solos are over a conventional 12-bar blues.
