Composed by Neal Finn. Score and parts. Published by Walrus Music Publishing (WA.51196).

Named for the intense style of jazz Miles was playing with his quintet in the late 1960's. An unusual composition for me. Based on a twelve tone row, this piece is sometimes tonal, sometimes atonal. Solo improvisation with no chord changes and no holds barred. Ensemble writing is tricky with many surprises. A good conversation piece for your concert program. As Duke said, "You may not understand this piece, but remember...IT'S GOOD FOR YOU.Soprano lead over saxophones. Solos: Tenor, soprano, trombone 1 and 2, guitar (or piano, drums) Vibraphone part included. 5/5/4 (5th tpt optional), P,B,D,Vibes.Lead Trumpet to High C.
