does anybody know any good websites for jazz solo transcriptions, particularly sax solos? I can't find many significant hits on any search engine. i'm looking for a transcription of John Coltrane's solo on Bessie's Blues. any help would be much appreciated. cheers. |

the solos? aren't they normally just noted as "improvise over the [scale]" in the sheet music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, i mean transcriptions as in someone has listened to the solo and written it out on manuscript. |
||||||||

ah, not needed anymore. cheers :) |

ah, like tabs? I can only find guitar tabs, but it's possible that someone has transcribed it for guitar? you'd probably just have to transpose it or sometihng, but I guess you probably already found files and downloaded them? |

|
|
ah, right, I guess you found it... oh, btw, a good source for jazz sheet music are those realbooks thingies.. you'll find them on random torrent sites... |

Cool link, dude... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
can you open those files? it seems I need some silly program to open them and I don't really care enough to find it as I don't even play guitar.. plus I may have the sheet music for that already somewhere... |
||||||||

|
I just opened some plain ASCII tabs... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah, ok... btw, just in case you didn't know.. if you need tabs for stuff, just use . I think it's one of the largest tab search sites... |

[irrelevant]steve vai transcribed hundreds of zappa solos. that's worthy of praise.[/irrelevant] |
||||||||

steve vai would do something like that.... i saw him and Marty Friedman on a japanese show -- the host would yell out the name of a metal song and they would have to know it already and play it i think somebody should take the time to make midi files out of Cecil Taylor's entire catalog -- then my faith in humanity might be restored.... |

what's the point in transcripting a jazz solo?! to be able to play it back? sounds like fucking for virginity imho... |
||||||||

|
"...transcribing..." ...oops |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no .. transcripting was more appropriate i am sure! |

just because they made it up live doesnt mean its not worth playing again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i don't think the problem is that they made it up and that it would be robbery of "intellectual property" or something like that, but quite the opposite: i don't think they made it up (in the classical sense at least, but i guess that's discussible), it specifically HAPPEND to them, and blah blah... institutionalizing these (by (my) definition) "free" movements doesn't sound to me like TEH SPIRIT of improvisation, y'know... on the other hand... whatever, i guess i'll just pull that baguette out of my ass |

|
ha, i overlooked the "live" in your sentence... OK: YOU WIN, ME STUPID :( |
