just C&P'd my post from HCGJ:

"Minority
:eek:
this was for my small jazz group arranging class. i had to write an arrangment for 5 saxes (2 alto, 2 tenor, 1 bari), piano bass and drums.

bari didnt show up on time for the recording, so its lacking some low end..

as i was fixing some parts up last night, i realized i edited some stuff and tranposed it incorrectly, so one or two bars sound really dissonant. it was unintentional. :facepalm:

atleast they managed to get from beginning to end with no trouble! :lol:"

this is my first arrangement ever, so its a bit rusty. :shrug: ya gotta start somewhere!

thanks guys! :thu:

i thought id get a better chance of some ears over here... hcgj doesnt wanna bite. :lol:

and i should be clear, Minority is not my composition. i just wrote the arrangement based on the melody.
 
You did a fine job. I'm looking forward to listening to it properly at home with real speakers. :thu:
 
...I can only imagine having that many horn players in the same room...sounded great...I dig the little intro bit...
 
First instrument i started to play was clarinet, i wish i had stuck with it a bit more. :embarrassed:
 
That sounds pretty great to me. I didn't hear the dissonance. :shrug:

I played alto sax in middle school. :embarrassed:

Your arrangement kind of reminded me of a buddy of mines album...there is one song where your arrangemet really reminds me of Martins stuff but I don't hear it on his Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/martinmtorres
