    Default Body and Soul - Johnny Green

    Could someone help me with a transcription of Kurt Elling's "A New Body And Soul" (from his 'Nightmoves' album)??? I haven't been able to find a pianist who can transcribe this beautiful re harmonization. I need it for an upcoming gig. Please help!

    Default Body and Soul - Johnny Green

    Body and Soul - Reharm

    Nothing major: mostly tritone subs to give the tune a little more bite, and a Swing Two/Four feel.

    Unfortunately, one can't select a Swing Two/Four with brushes, only with sticks.

    Body And Soul Rev - Johnny Green

    Another good option with this tune would be Latin/Swing.

    Cheers,

    Default Body And Soul (John Coltrane)

    John Coltrane version of Body And Soul, from Coltrane's Sound album,
    bold reharmonization with long pedals and Coltrane changes.

    The chart includes the cadenza (in rubato) and the interesting outro but they are not playback correctly, of course, because of the limitation the plsyer's single fixed tempo.

    Nice!

    The "Coltrane changes" are especially evident in the bridge.

    The second bridge to body and soul is:

    What is there for me?
    A future that's stormy.
    A winter that's gray and cold.

    Unless there's magic
    The end will be tragic.
    And echo a tale
    That's been told so often.
