We've had quite a busy week!

A new SongTrellis member, Nicolas Longuet, submitted an original composition Thinkin' of Bob and two new chord progressions to The Changes this morning. He did beautiful arrangements of Blue in Green and a C Blues with altered harmonies.

We added versions of five great Latin-American rhythms (Bembe Shango, Cumbia, Merengue, Bomba and Plena) to The Rhythms.

We added 15 new chord progressions to The Changes:

• John Coltrane's Central Park West, Lazybird, Equinox, and Cousin Mary
• Wayne Shorter's Speak No Evil, Pinocchio, and Adam's Apple
• Oliver Nelson's Stolen Moments
• Thelonious Monk's Straight, No Chaser
• Freddie Hubbard's Crisis
• Duke Ellington's In A Sentimental Mood
• Duke Jordan's Jordu
• Charles Mingus' Nostalgia In Times Square and
• Tony Williams' Pee Wee
