COMPREHENSION: 4/10
DIFFICULTY: 5.5/10
8 full pages of comping from of the greats, Tony Williams. From the album Empyrean Isles by Herbie Hancock, “One Finger Snap” is a classic example of straight ahead/up-tempo jazz. The transcription bounces from the intro - to Freddie Hubbard’s solo - to Herbie’s solo. Most of what’s notated is eighth notes, which makes the reading a lot less stressful/reinforces playing patiently and melodically in a jazz band.
