Mingus, Charles

Let My Children Hear Music
Epitaph, 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
