Paul
Merrill, director of the
Cornell University Jazz
Ensemble (Ithaca, NY),
commissioned this
engaging bossa nova
original for proficient
groups. Don't let the
title fool you, though,
because there's an
abundance of subtle, yet
challenging material here
requiring a mature
approach from the
ensemble. The melody is
based on a simple
four-note motif played by
Miles Davis on his album
Tutu. Brown later adapted
this score for
small-group and recorded
it on his CD Night Waves
(Brown Cats
Productions/BC9501).
Guitar, tenor sax, and
flugelhorn are featured
in melodic and solo
roles. Duration 5:35.
