In the course of my campaign to badger people to play my songs (their own versions, that is) I have actually received some interest from a local trumpeter/singer who has requested a 'chart' which has caught me on the hop somewhat.
I thought he'd just be able to scab it from my version.
So I've got to notate it which I've done after a fashion. Wasn't quite sure how to do the melody when it has to be notated 'straight' then 'swung' by the interpreter but I muddled through.
He's already going to realise that I'm a novice at this but I want to look a little less stupid by at least getting the chords right. There's a diminished seventh chord so........
How do I know which chord to specify when I've got a choice of 4?
