A Night in Tunisia by Eric Miyashiro

A Night in Tunisia
from my first CD "Kick Up" 2000

This was my "first" big band arrangement since my Berklee days.
I see a lot of wrong voicing and many immature ideas....
in the days of not having access to Finale or Sibelius type software,or even a keyboard/piano, I wrote this using Yamaha QY 70 handheld sequencer.
