These really are everything I hope for when I look up arrangements. Maybe more of a melody in it than a scatter of lovely bebop style notation, but buy in large lovely all fhe way through. The dissonance is infectious, very reminiscent to..a few songs I have on my mind.

I'm glad Trombones think this is a solo the entire time haha! I think saxophones, trumpets, and trombones may have been playing three different songs in volume. Saxophones are at PP Trumpets at MP And dear Trombones have achieved the sound barrier.

Bass bone and bari sax are the two most important parts in a big band if the band is going to have any power and presence. And arguably the most fun parts to play.

I love this arrangement of invitation, this sort of funk/hip feel brings such a new life to the standard. This key also remind me so much of the key invitation was wrote in for the airmen of note arrangement (which I'm pretty sure it is). But well done with this piece, you've really nailed it!

Thanks for this video , it helps me a lot ! What do you recommend for spread voicings when the root is in the lead note?
@douglasleibinger85496 ай бұрын
I would suggest switching to a drop 2 & 4 sub lead voicing with a root in the lead
@majikjack2027 Жыл бұрын
Hey, just curious, you talk about substituting a root note, and I'm not super familiar with that. I understand full chord substitution, switching the 1 for the 3, etc., But I'm unsure of which notes are the best for substituting a tonic note. It seems to me like you are often using the 9th? And you recommended the 11th in some circumstances. Along these lines, would the 13th and 7th also be good substitutions? You also refer to the 11th as a good substitute for the 5th, would that also mean that the 13th would be a good 3rd substitute? Or would you want to even substitute a 3rd?
@douglasleibinger8549 Жыл бұрын
So I was a student of Gary Lindsay at University of Miami - I highly recommend his book "Jazz Arranging Techniques" lindsayjazz.com/ - this video draws from his method heavily - regarding subs, he has a very useful table with specific subs for every chord type - but in general, 9ths are good subs for roots; we generally don't sub for the 3rd or 7th; 11ths and 13ths are good subs for the 5th - however, these all depend on the chord type. Hope this helps!

well explained - exactly the way I would have written it - to be super correct the #9 in the F7(#9) would rather be a g# 🤓 - however, every musician would prefer to read the a flat in such a situation :-)

Hi Douglas! Thank you very much for the video! In the third system, the E7alt voicing should be Drop 2+4? Because it's only in Drop 2. In Fm7b5 you take it as F#, it seems to me that it is not right. Sorry for my English
@douglasleibinger85492 жыл бұрын
Good catches! Yes, the G# in the E7alt should be dropped to create a drop 2&4 voicing - also, I'm not sure how I wrote that F# on the F half-diminished - must have been tired!
