This adventurous chart emphasizes rhythmic groove in a contemporary samba feel and delivers unique angular lines. Following a powerful fanfare and a flurry of contrapuntal lines, your tenor soloist and drummer duel in an open blowing section. Guitar (or keyboard) is featured over a funky stop-time solo section and the drummer swaps phrases with the ensemble at the end. Chronometry was commissioned by the New Trier Jazz Ensemble in Winnetka, Il (Jim Warrick, director) to commemorate the school's centennial celebration. |
