Somewhere Between Jazz and Tango is a composition in three movements arranged for brass quartet. Starting softly with solo lines, the piece builds resulting in a pleasant theme reminding one of a dance. The composer tried to create a perfect balance between each solo voice and the ensemble. There are elements of counterpoint woven within jazzy melodies and rhythmic structures of tango representing a true musical marriage somewhere between jazz and tango.
