Pretty self-explanatory. Tony thought there weren't enough gongs on my last post. Well... gong solo this time. Need I say more? My apologies to Juan Tizol. It was a great tune before this happened.

This one took me three takes because at the end on the Bb chord, I kept hitting a C in my top mallet instead of a high D. That's one of the harder chords for me to reach in this book. I also strayed a little from the Gregorian chant-like…
