THE COMMISSIONER Composed and arranged for Wycliffe Gordon and the Nashville Jazz Composers Collective. Standard jazz ensemble instrumentation (8 brass) with no doubles. The Commissioner is a tune started by Jeff Coffin and finished by Ryan Middagh. They were
bringing in Wycliffe Gordon to Vanderbilt University and wanted to have a tune specifically written for him. (Get it?? Commissioner Gordon...) It's simple and a touch complex at the same time.
