I see the first part is rather free... with "loops" playing (not real loops, but lots of repeatitions). Rhythm and orcehstration rock seriously! Solo changes tonality! YAYAY! you're my man now!
Impressed I am

Glad you liked it! Score is currently being reworked for readability: for some reason I wrote it in 4/4, very up-tempo - each page of the score was, like 4 seconds worth of music, and had people tapping their toes like crazy - too fast. So, I've cut it all in half with double-time feel...much better now! May post the score eventually...
...I practically stole all the arranging concepts from Mingus: the simple melody, ad-lib cacophony underneath, stop time solo, cut time stuff, backgrounds...was going for that dirty, urban feel Mingus captures so well...
(not sure where you hear the solos changing tonality...it stays in C the whole time
)
Aaaaand, if you didn't think it ugly, we didn't try hard enough! Will be much uglier for you, next time!
