Trumpet Solo Transcription of "Take the 'A' Train" by Billy Strayhorn, Arranged by Alan Baylock.

So my friend, Robert Opielski, asked me to transcribe the solo off of jwpepper for this song because he enjoyed it and wanted to learn it for our performance of it. I agreed to help him, as well as enhance my transcribing skills, alongside increasing my musical knowledge.

Since I'm new to the whole transcribing scene, let me know if there are any mistakes regarding rhythm and pitches. Additionally, I found no information regarding the soloist who performed this, so please feel free to inform me on it to update this post.

Otherwise enjoy!
