Featured Composer Series: Walt Weiskopf

See the Pyramid

Composed by Walt Weiskopf and Arranged by Alan Baylock

 Walt's music is never short on either creativity or intensity. The Gates of Madrid is in essence a blowing tune based on rhythm changes, but Walt never settles for the ordinary, and he gives this tune a twisting and angular melody that grabs your attention right from the start. Alan Baylock cleverly loads this with material from Walt’s own soloing to produce a wonderful saxes and brass bebop soli that trades phrases with the tenor soloist. This is lots of fun, and there’s plenty of blowing space. [Instr: 5 saxes, 8 brass, 4 rhythm with optional 3rd tenor part for use with guest soloist]

 

This recording is from "The 2016 Jazz Heritage Series" by The Airmen of Note.
