What's the music?

Good Time Brass Brass Quintet

“Cowboy Bebop” is a synthesis between two musical loves of the quintet – Jazz and Western soundtracks. This program is inspired by the pioneering space-western anime Cowboy Bebop and the romanticized American West, with programmatic emphasis on individuality, exploration, and creativity. Selections include a musical suite from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly score by Ennio Morricone, “Iron Horse” by Kevin McKee, as well as original arrangements of “Tank!” from the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack and "A Night In Tunisia" by Dizzy Gillespie.

Where does this music come from?

Our program focuses on the musical lineages of jazz and western soundtracks, exploring the expression and creativity of jazz alongside the evocative music that characterizes the American west. Brass instruments play a key role in both of these genres historically, ranging from the biting sounds of bebop trumpet and trombone to the majestic orchestral brass sections of Hollywood composers. We dive into both of those traditions in this program while also synthesizing them in original compositions.
