(Level IV) A solo tenor feature, this chart has a very different sound, including a contemporary "ECM" straight-eighth style, driving rock oriented rhythm playing, lots of shifting textures, cross voicings, and extended changes. Builds to an intense climax. Recorded by NTSU One O'clock Band on Lab '88. 10 Brass
