This document transcribes Grant Green's solo performance on the jazz standard "Minor League." The solo consists of a 16-bar blues progression played over a C minor chord progression. Green employs a variety of techniques throughout the solo, including single-note lines, double stops, and call-and-response phrasing. He builds intensity through repetition of short motifs before resolving back to the head of the song. The solo demonstrates Green's skill at developing ideas melodically over the standard blues changes.
