Better late then never, here's my written out rendition of the High Society Solo as recorded on "Dixie Parade" and as a bonus and preview of more material to come, my transcribed performance of "A Night in Tunisia." Those wishing the audio reference(s) to these charts may contact me for discretionary exchange in formats; disc and/or zipped WMA or MP3.
And, in general response to occasional BBoard inquires for clarinet solo transcriptions of traditional-Dixieland jazz (Lord, knows we have enough Saxophone method books cluttering the cosmos), I am currently drafting a Dixie "Omnibook" of 21 (or so) of my solos from select live and studio sessions. The "greater" purpose of this project is to not only provide style experts and enthusiasts listening enjoyment and a wellspring for musical analysis, but present the serious traditional jazz student a much needed -- listen, play, and learn -- educational resource.
As of now, I'm only eight charts in; when complete I'll likely contact Mark or GBK about donating the files to Woodwind.org for, exclusive posting. I'll make it as easy as I can not copyrighting my intellectual property and engraving all music, as I have done, on my own PC and registered copy of Finale 2006.
Enjoy, more to come. v/r Ken
