DESCRIPTION

A transcription of the piano solo in Naima from John Coltrane's album Giant Steps. Wynton Kelly was pianist on this cut; Tommy Flanagan was pianist on all the other cuts. Kelly died in 1971, age 39. In 2011 I and several colleagues at the school where I teach decided to perform Naima for the student body, so I, being a really poor improviser, decided I would transcribe Kelly's solo for our performance. Because of all the really tight harmonies in the solo, it took me two weeks to complete the transcription, but I am pretty sure it is very accurate.
