ABC Blues [Ken:52002]

ABC Blues. By: Brookmeyer. Kendor Archive Editions. Instrumentation: standard jazz ensemble with opt. flute, clarinet or bass clarinet doubles for alto and tenor saxes; opt. solo flugelhorn.

As recorded by the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra in 1966 on their Jazz Orchestra album (Solid State), this contemporary blues features advanced scales, modern chord clusters, and edgy dissonances. Improvised solo space is given to piano, alto, tenor, flugelhorn (or trumpet), and trombone. The chart closes with a bass cadenza, a drum solo, and a sustained, whisper-quiet band chord. Duration 12:00. .
