Haven't really played all summer, but I have wanted to do this soli for a while now. It was one of the first I ever heard, and it was a joy/challenge to play.

I never thought I would have the opportunity to go to Japan, let alone as part of a jazz band. Here I am, 5 days later with jet lag, still in awe about it. I am so grateful to all who made this possible, and it will not be a time I forget anytime soon!
I dedicate this to the two flurries we got this semester.
In all seriousness though, this was meant to be a simple arrangement, but it quickly got out of hand. (Oh man, wouldn't it be funny to have 4 melodies at the same time?).
Anyway, I put this together quite quickly so it's in like a rough draft state. I do not feel like editing it more so I'm leaving it how it is.
Enjoy this wacky arrangement of mine and happy holidays!

Got to play with the studio jazz band and Orchestra in NYC at the role theater. Played some new originals. including @bankssapnar Red Braid (killin' chart). 9/10 experience. Needed more coffee.
Truly grateful to have seen this legend in person. What a beast of a trombone player.
(P.S. maybe I should invest in leg extensions. I'm freaking short.)
Went on a boat to see dolphins, saw a humpback whale as a bonus. Also got to see a huge organ... crazy hearing all of the different sounds (and it wasn't even able to played at its full potential since it is still going under repair)
