Take Five

I previously had a different version of this piece from a different publisher. This version is much better, because it is more accurate to the original piece (particularly the 2nd music theme or transitional bridge after the primary melody). This is one of my favorite jazz pieces, and the digital version you have for it is excellent.

Take 5

This is the classic music from Brubeck. Just wish they also had Al Jarreaus version available :)

Original Composition by Paul Desmond, quite hard!

This is the original composition written by Paul Desmond. It is quite hard considering it is in the key of E-Flat Minor and in 5/4 jazz time. However, if played correctly, it sounds exactly like "Take Five," with the swing and everything. If you are an advanced piano student, this should be no problem. Intermediates may have trouble sight-reading, especially with the rhythm. Its a great composition. A true jazz classic.
