Use letters to designate the sections of the form. Hint: The form of this piece is 32 bars, but it is not AABA. How does this group arrange the melody? Is it harmonized? What are the general characteristics of this piece that are different from the bebop groups we heard last week? Do any of the soloists play for an entire chorus? How many bars does each of the six soloists play? Now listen to Getz’s solo from 00:41 to 01:01. Describe Tristano’s comping and the rhythm section during Getz’s solo. How does the piece end? What section of the melody (that is, the form) is played at the end at 02:36? The bass and drums stop playing at 02:39 to the end. Describe how this sounds.
