Joseph's Tiger

a

Does anyone know who wrote this?

WowBobWow

Jospeh Stephan, I believe. I think it's Django's Tiger (Tiger Rag) changes with Joseph's own head

dennis

i think you meant Joscho Stephan

Anyway it's a Stochelo Rosenberg composition based on the changes of stomping at decca and with a B section inspired by Dinah and a melody inspired by Joseph Reinhardt's Bric-a-Brac hence the title Joseph's Tiger

I actually don't know this tune, but I love Bric-a-Brac...anyway it sounds like a classic jazz mash-up: A section from one, B from another, swipe some melody, and it's another new tune!

God knows I've done it.

best,
Jack.
