The following tune utilized the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) dataset of global average temperatures back to 1880's, seperated and averaged by decade, and based the chord and melodic progression off of the decadal averages in the changing and increasing global temperatures. Additionally, the shifts in melodic and harmonic structure were also inspired by the influences of Black jazz musicians such as Oscar Pettiford, Milt Jackson, Melba Liston, & Oscar Peterson especially during the 1950's and 1960's which coincided with sharp and steady increases in global temperatures. When soloing, musicians are asked to think about the questions: What is at stake with climate change? and How has and will climate change affect the creation of music?.
