“Chill Out”  from the Creative Commons:

                “Chill Out” is one of the songs from the “Creative Commons” which I use with this curriculum.  The very slow tempo and “haunting” harmonies offer a different kind of challenge for its improviser’s.  What makes it so unusual, is that the “shaping” of its improvisation melody is far more significant than the application of varying velocities.  There is no “Count 0ff” audio file needed for “Chill Out”, since it uses a very basic 32 counts, 4 chords, and 2 bars each format.  Soloists should rotate every 8 bars (after the 12 bar introduction), and it will not be far into the song until the participating soloists will be able to “feel” when each person’s eight measure “rotation” should begin and end.  For both the i-Pad and traditional keyboards there an easier set of parts, allowing the song to be played at two different “challenge levels”, or both levels simultaneously.  Finally, it is in the key of C# minor, making a very difficult song for wind instrumentalists, but no obstacle at all for formatted grey i-Pad keyboard maps, or a “black and white” traditional keyboard using a transposition of “+04”.  So, sit back, “Chill Out”, and enjoy.
