  • Alto sax solo by Jackie McLean.
    Moanin - track 3 from the album Blues and Roots (1960) by Charles Mingus
    This score is transposed because it's written for an Eb Alto Saxophone.

      They had a falling out in Mingus' apartment so Mingus punched him and fucked up his teeth, and by extension his embouchure. Messed his splaying right up.

    Are the chord is concert pitch or adjusted to the saxophone? Because the original key has a d flat in it which means that there probably would be a d natural chord there. It would be f in concert pitch in that case. Is the fist chord d or f?

    Do the circles next to chords stands for mayor?

    • @SethBailin
      @SethBailin  Před 8 lety +10

      +Luis Morales a small circle means "diminished." For example, E diminished is a chord with E, G, and Bb. It can be "fully diminished 7" (with a Db) or "half diminished" (with D natural), but I chose to represent the chords very simply, omitting the 7 in most cases.
