{"product_id":"epitaph-study-score","title":"Epitaph - Study Score","description":"\u003ci\u003eEpitaph\u003c\/i\u003e, written for a 31-piece ensemble, was the masterwork of composer\/bassist Charles Mingus. The extended suite is comprised of multiple movements reflecting a wealth of compositional styles (not just jazz) that demonstrate Mingus' invaluable contribution to 20th-century American music. Since its last performance 15 years ago, additional movements have been discovered that were originally intended to be a part of the work. This unique 500-page score includes these “missing movements” along with historical and program notes. Prepared and edited under the guidance of Gunther Schuller and Sue Mingus, it provides a monumental resource for study and analysis.  The first jazz composition of such magnitude ever to be published, it is presented in this edition as he left it: a summary work, a portrait for all time of his life in music.  “I wrote it for my tombstone.” - Charles Mingus","brand":"Let My Children Hear Music, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53480989524286,"sku":"07011810","price":75.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/1396\/9982\/files\/07011810-wl.jpg?v=1778699719","url":"https:\/\/themusiciansclub.net\/products\/epitaph-study-score","provider":"The Musicians Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
