Listening (Babbitt, Milton - All Set (1957)

This is a combination of Jazz music in performing of a composition in a pitch class. I can tell how this music is representative of jazz. The instruments in the piece are very similar to those in a jazz band. There is a mallet, trumpet, sax, upright bass, snare and bass drum, and trombone. At times I can somewhat feel a swing in the music, even though it might be for a minute or two. The use of the ride cymbal is an example of the jazz element in the piece. I feel that Babbitt's combination of jazz music and pitch music was an interesting way of expanding the music of chance.
