- Unconventional instrument use
- Traditional use of clarinet-high register, trumpet- middle, trombone- low register
- Duke reverses traditional order of instrument registers, called "mike-tone"
- 0:00-0:15 Duke introduces piece on piano, very fast then slows down, many chords
- 0:16-0:56 trombones with mutes, assisted by baritone saxophone, soft and slurred
- 0:57-1:39 clarinet solo, same style as trombones, many quick runs to high notes then slows down
- 1:40-2:23 trumpet with mute solo
- 2:24-3:06 Duke on piano, similar runs as clarinet, bass rhythms
- 3:06-3:57 piano and bass continue, trombone, clarinet, trumpet join in- play solo pieces again
- 3:58-4:04 closing, all instruments play
- throughout: bass accompaniment, same riff apparent in different instrument sections
