Urban Cowboy

This contemporary cool chart fuses jazz elements and the sounds associated with American Westerns. The complex harmonic progression and style of the opening sets the stage of a modern city. A contrasting feel of riding a horse through the canyons created by the skyscrapers on either side of the main drag becomes the recurring chorus. The fading conclusion conjures images of a lone cowboy riding off into the sunset. Your students and audience alike should enjoy the musical imagery created in this unique Jazz composition.
