Edition: Jazz Sextet Arrangement (Three Horns and Rhythm)

Description: Swing Waltz - Medium

Publisher: Second Floor Music/Hal Leonard

From Bobby Watson: Wheel Within A Wheel, a jazz waltz, was originally recorded with Art Blakey. In fact, Art is the one who suggested the title for this composition based on the prophet Ezekiel's visions of flying saucers. The modal A section gives the soloist and the rhythm section plenty of room to create before going to the bridge. The round at the end of the piece can serve as a launching pad for spontaneous improvisation by the performers as long as the concept of the round is preserved. This one is requested wherever I appear and is always a crowd pleaser.
