Bojan Z: Who's BoB (Solobession, 2000)
This tune is a masterpiece in melodic development: the ideas seem to flow freely from Bojan's fingers, each one organically connected to the previous one.
This is a peculiar tune, and it also sounds like a warmup (an amazing one!). It's hard to know how much of the piece is improvised, though there is a melodic motif that runs throughout the piece. mainly based on two chords (G#m and G) and just one scale (G#m blues scale) over one octave (!). There is also a 4-bars "bridge" over non-diatonic minor chords (Cm-C#m-Am-Fm).
EDIT: Some commenters on my YouTube video have raised the question of the rhythm of the piece. I strongly hear the chords played in the left hand on beats 1 and 3, but it's very likely that I'm mistaken and that they're played on beats 2 and 4 (as if Bojan were playing a kind of stride without the bass). Even though I think the 2&4 version is the correct one, I can't hear it that way (let alone play it like that...).
So I've created two versions of the PDF; you can choose the one you prefer!
PDF, 2 versions, 7-8 pages.
