  1. Hello everyone! I am studying jazz piano and today I composed a blues theme and arranged it for big band (actually only for rhythm section and saxophones at the moment). I just did it as a little exercise. I am planning to focus on piano playing for some time but I have found that applying the ideas and concepts I learn for composing and arranging helps me improve faster both in my playing and composition skills. For this arrangement I used the knowledge I recently acquired for piano voicings, five voice jazz harmonization, and bass walking bass. All voicings and harmonization are quite basic and I am also sure there must be many mistakes :S. I have not learn anything about drums yet so the drums were just copied big band scores I found online, so I do not know yet what the drum is doing. I might use this theme (or some others I might compose) for slowly practicing Big Band arranging while I learn piano so this is only an exercise that I might keep on improving on. It is my first time composing and arranging jazz so any feedback for the theme or the arrangement is more than welcome. Thank you nd hope you like it!
