Odd Time in Mali is a catchy West African influenced work for big band. It is based on an interesting rhythmic pattern which alternates between bars of 4/4 and 5/4 which initially heard on a recording from Mali. The piece moves into a 4/4 Cameroonian-derived Makoosa feel for the improvised solos. Like a lot of West African popular music a Calypso flavour can be heard.
Instrumentation
2 alto saxophones, 2 tenor saxophones, 4 trumpets, 3 trombones, 1 bass trombone, piano, guitar, bass, drums
