Human Impersonator, The Brown, Donald Quintet / HL00000754 click for RealAudio clip Recorded by DONALD BROWN on SOURCES OF INSPIRATION Muse: MCD 5385 / Recorded August 11, 1989  Tempo Uptempo swing Arrangement Difficulty advanced Solo Difficulty medium-advanced QUINTET INSTRUMENTATION 1st part: Trumpet, Alto Sax, C treble clef 2nd part: Soprano Sax, Alto Sax,Trombone Rhythm Section: Piano, Bass, Drums, Guitar FULL SCORE This uptempo swing chart features challenging lines for the horns as well as complicated and exposed figures for the rhythm section. It contrasts a highly arranged, specific head with a loose, unstructured, free solo section, giving a great example of what's expected of a well-rounded jazz player. Players are expected to read complicated figures and play them accurately with other members of the ensemble, then make a quick transition into making music in the context of free improvisation. SOLOS: Free improvisations. DONALD BROWN (b. 1954). Like his friend and fellow Memphian, James Williams, whom he replaced as pianist in Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, Donald is a noted composer, educator and recording artist. After teaching at Berklee for 5 years, Donald moved to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Particularly active in the 1980s, his compositions, including contemporary standards like Affaire D'Amour, New York, and The Insane Asylum have been recorded by Wynton Marsalis, Art Blakey, Art Farmer, Donald Byrd, Mulgrew Miller, T.S. Monk and many others.
