The Last 8 - "Night and Day" - JoHen Style

Zeroing in on a particular section of a tune (say, 4 to eight bars), is a great way to isolate and iron out any potential problems that one might be having with it.

In that vein, this months post takes a look at the final 8 bars of the two A-Sections of Cole Porter's classic, "Night and Day", featuring Joe Henderson's reharmonization, which was the subject of an earlier post.

While Henderson's tenor solo, from his classic Blue Note "Inner Urge" session, is in the uncommon key of D Major, the set of eight mini etudes found here in the free pdf download (below - in Bb, Eb and C versions) is in the usual key of Eb.
