the notes in parenthesis is just walking down, totally optional but i like to throw it in. mostly the first part goes with the piano and the heavier part with the brass. dunno if it's exactly right but it's playable! really easy to simplify if you take out the C's and the parenthesis but yep. revisions and edits very welcome.
