"SNAZZ" - Jesse Sieff

**SHEET MUSIC AVAILABLE HERE: http://sieffmusic.com/music-store-1/s...

Composed with the natural spirit of jazz in mind, this snare solo playfully mirrors the virtuosic jazz piano line of Aaron Goldberg's "Oam'S Blues". Based upon a refined technique of improvisation, the solo intricately combines traditional and hybrid rudiments in a non-traditional context. Please share, comment, and enjoy.

"Oam's Blues" was used as a demo audio track for Windows Media player in 2007. For the sake of time and logistics, a transitional cut was made during the drum solo.
