Based On A Version By Clare Fischer. Par FISCHER CLARE. This is an orchestration of Clare Fischer's version found on the recording Latin Pattern. The piano introduction is Clare's from the recording Alone Together. The piano then starts the latin groove setting of this traditional German song. There is an open solo over a vamp that keeps building and leads to a very exciting ensemble passage. The theme is then restated and the coda brings it home./ Répertoire / Big Band

Depuis le Mingus Big Band Blues CD et politique!, Ce blues intense mineures s'ouvre avec un solo de basse, puis se déploie progressivement couche par couche jusqu'à ce que tout l'ensemble est criant. Comprend beaucoup d'espace en solo avec antécédents d'ensemble et des interludes. / Scores
