i was listening to the soundtrack the other day and thought to myself "damn, jazz versions of this would be great" and now lo and behold i found this! fantastic work, you all sound wonderful and this is much groovier than i could ever have imagined, that transition from one short day to defying gravity really hit the spot 👌👌
lol I appreciate that. My channel is new but I have a lot more content planned like this so I will slowly grow (hopefully). I seriously appreciate your support, thank you!
Fracking great! Really amazing arrangement, and your notation chops are super on point! Man k love every bit of it. If you’re ever in NYC, let’s get lunch! 🎉🎉
Thank you for watching! Dude make sure you are following me on Instagram and and hit me up when I am in New York, my sister lives there so I stop by occasionally!
Like subscribe and share maybe it will get more! But seriously my channel is pretty new and this was my first video to get over 10k views so thank you for your support and nice comment!
Thank you!!!!! I'm getting started on your track soon, finishing up a commission with the Singapore jazz association first. Thank you guys for all your support over the years!
This was FANTASTIC. I thought One Short Day was gonna be my favorite because it seemed like the easiest to translate to jazz, but Defying Gravity?? HOLY. SHIT. Absolutely phenomenal!
thank you! I liked the challenge defying gravity posed when arranging and I am looking forward to making more videos, sub for more I appreciate your support!
Thank you! You are my first comment since this hit 10K views! This is my first video with 10k views and I appreciate your support so much, subscribe for more jazzy covers coming soon!
In the works, dealing with some licensing requiring me to split up the arrangements! Subscribe and follow me on insta @cjrhenmusic for the announcement, thank you for watching!
Thank you, I am working on a whole bunch of film and tv jazz big band covers. Next one up is from the lastest lion King movie. Keep up with my channel for more, thank you!
This is freaking fire and a half!!! Love this musical, thank you so so much for doing the orchestral arrangements from this film justice (and for the early birthday present)
Thank you watching and I tried hard to match the intensity of this film with big band, it was tricky! Next videos are going to be a track from mufasa and the theme from the Dexter TV show! Make sure you are subscribed for more big band covers!
Thank you! lol I have the drum part in the score as well as piano and bass but wasn't sure if I should include them since I was running out of space, I might have been a little bias as a sax and trumpet player too... 🎷❤🔥🎺
These trombonists drew herter (trombone 1,2,3) and Olivia Nixon on bass trombone are such fantastic players, it's a privilege to work with them! Her bell on that horn is massive and her sound is the best. Thanks for watching!
Hey, I played the piano and bass for this and they are in the recording, just not video recorded because I recorded them in separate audio takes! I just opted for a single chord comping part so that is why there is no guitar recorded! The sheet music which I am finishing off to release on sheet music plus has all the parts in case people want to have both. Future videos will have some really awesome guys playing bass and piano/guitar I just currently do not have the budget to hire more players so I played it myself lol. Thank you for watching and keep up with my channel for more videos coming soon!
Oh my goodness that is so great! Where can I find and buy the arrangement? I would love to play this with my university big band. Unfortunately, I can't find it on the websites listed.
Hey ran into a licensing issue so I am required to split it up into 3 mini arrangements and I have been busy finishing my commission with the Singapore Jazz Association. So please subscribe and follow me on insta @cjrhenmusic and I will post an announcement when the sheet music goes live on sheet music plus! Thank you for your interest and sorry for the slight inconvenience haha.
Not yet because of a licensing confusion hopefully will be soon. Please subscribe because the next jazz cover which will come out on Spotify is from the Mufasa movie!
The only complaints I have is that most of the rhythm section is missing ( guitar, bass, vibraphone, piano) but otherwise this is really good (I’m a vibraphone player myself)
Hey I played the bass and piano but I am not quite good enough to do them in one full take... so I recorded them in sections hence no video! I hope to hire some more rhythm section guys but I need more donations or to make money from my videos to afford it because right now I am blowing through rent money haha. Subscribe to show your support and hopefully in the next few videos I will pull together the funds to hire some more talented players (including a vibraphone)
Hey the sheet music will be for sale as 3 separate arrangements on sheet music plus to adhere to some licensing quirks! Thank you for watching and follow me to here and on insta @cjrhenmusic to see announcements
Wow! I know a ton of work went into this. Great job. Would love to see a tutorial video on the scrolling music if you are ever interested in doing that.
I'm sputtering because I have no words...THIS IS SO GOOD
Thank you! Planning some more arrangement videos!
Man this is so cool! Thanks for having me on it!
I got a bigger green screen to fit your whole slide next time!
The unlimited part at 3:47... almost brought tears to my eyes
Thank you! It was a beautiful part to play!
i was listening to the soundtrack the other day and thought to myself "damn, jazz versions of this would be great" and now lo and behold i found this! fantastic work, you all sound wonderful and this is much groovier than i could ever have imagined, that transition from one short day to defying gravity really hit the spot 👌👌
That drummer Greer Lambert sold that transition, he is a fantastic player. Thanks for watching!
I had the exact same thought! I was listening to jazz arrangements of Finian’s Rainbow and suddenly wondered what this score would sound like as Jazz.
Great arranging, great playing! Kudos from Germany, I played bass trombone in the stage production.
That's awesome and thank you for watching, more arrangements are on the way!
Good God..... Do you hear that Bass Trombone!!!!!! Be still my beating heart. Sooooo good.
Yep Olivia Nixon is the undisputable best! Can't wait to have her track on more arrangements!
Posilutely Orgazmified!!
Lol thank you!!! I am working on the theme to the show Dexter next
This needs more views!!!

Nice sound.!
Thanks for listening!
Very nice!
thank you! working on some new charts soon
Wwow This is very beautiful my friend! 👏🏼You did an awesome job 😊 (I covered this too btw) 😊.
Thank you for watching, super cool to have a cool creator like you watch my video!!
I loved this! The beginning of Defying Gravity felt weird to me, still loved it though. That ending was amazing!
Thanks for watching!
Omg would love a purchasable arrangement
In the works, dealing with some licensing requiring me to split up the arrangements! Subscribe and follow me on insta @cjrhenmusic for the announcement, thank you for watching!
This was so much fun to watch. Amazing creativity with the arrangement!
Thank you, I am working on a whole bunch of film and tv jazz big band covers. Next one up is from the lastest lion King movie. Keep up with my channel for more, thank you!
3:48 🔥🔥
I was so excited to play that alto solo! glad you like it!
This is fun. Thank you.
Thank you for listening!
Wow🎉
Thank you for watching! I am planning to make more arrangement videos soon!
Bravi !
thank you for watching
This is freaking fire and a half!!! Love this musical, thank you so so much for doing the orchestral arrangements from this film justice (and for the early birthday present)

wow! amazing!!!
Thank you! I am working on "I Always Wanted a Brother" from Mufasa next! Make sure you are subbed so you don't miss it and I appreciate your support!
Wow. Amazing!! It literally sounds amazing😄😄 But where is the transcription for the drums?
Thank you! lol I have the drum part in the score as well as piano and bass but wasn't sure if I should include them since I was running out of space, I might have been a little bias as a sax and trumpet player too... 🎷❤🔥🎺
Why are the keys all the same? Alto and Bari are in Eb, Tenor and Trumpet are in Bb, and Trombone is in C
Good question! I opted to put the score video in concert pitch that way people can follow along on a piano. Thank you for watching!
Me as an old trumpet player: I could do that; hey that's not so bad; NOPE
Hahaha, joe walczyk the lead player is just insane I was recording him and was like, damn I need to practice
🔥🔥🔥
You got a band that wants to play it?
Lovely bass trombone sound.. is thst an 11.5" monster of a bell?
These trombonists drew herter (trombone 1,2,3) and Olivia Nixon on bass trombone are such fantastic players, it's a privilege to work with them! Her bell on that horn is massive and her sound is the best. Thanks for watching!
@cjrhenmusic I'm a bass trombonist my self. Used to have a bone with a monster bell myself, but got wrecked at uni
Dude sweet video! Did you write all that yourself? If so you did an amazing job!
I did all the arranging but all the music is the original Wicked music. More arrangements are on the way! Hope you enjoy!
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet
Thanks for watching! Keep up with my channel for more!
Please tell me is there an arrangement or transcription of this😭🙏
I am releasing the music on sheet music plus so it's all legal haha! Should be ready in a couple days.
Do you have an arrangement with a full rhythm section with guitar, bass, piano and percussion instead just drums?
Hey, I played the piano and bass for this and they are in the recording, just not video recorded because I recorded them in separate audio takes! I just opted for a single chord comping part so that is why there is no guitar recorded! The sheet music which I am finishing off to release on sheet music plus has all the parts in case people want to have both.

@cjrhenmusic have you thought about making it available to subscribers on musescore?
Wow! I know a ton of work went into this. Great job. Would love to see a tutorial video on the scrolling music if you are ever interested in doing that.
I will do a video on that! its a little tricky but the results are awesome. Thank you for watching, more arrangements on the way!
