"BURNING..." Odd Meter JIMI HENDRIX Jazz BIG BAND
"So Hendrix-Round 2... and "OMG, I've Started A Big Band!!! I had long been working on a jazz treatment of Jimi Hendrix's "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp" and started playing with the idea of scoring it for large ensemble. Once I got into, I was hooked. So my first real big band arrangement in decades just seemed to appear. Followed by the thought - "Oh dear, I'm going to need players... lots of players"
So many calls & emails & Facebook messages later, I had players... some old friends and many guys that I'm still yet to meet in person. I sent them all music and stuff to play-a-long to and they graciously sent back stunning performances captured as audio and video. So this video is the record of our collective efforts. Hope you like it!!!"
