about
“Push Come da Shove” is a C-minor blues with an extended form laid over a rhythmic pedal point—but the arrangement is a beast. (When I passed out the parts, I apologized to the musicians for the turmoil I was about to put them through!) One of the unique things about this arrangement is the trombone soli; the band has a killer trombone section, and I wanted to show them some love. The trombone lines are inspired by the left hand of the legendary pianist McCoy Tyner as recorded on Coltrane’s “Resolution” from A Love Supreme. Where does the title come from? I’m amused by that colloquialism, and the tune definitely pushes and shoves!
