Folk Forms, No. 1

[Intro]
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
We'd like to remind you that we don't applaud here at The Showplace
Where we're working
So, restrain your applause
And if you must applaud, wait 'til the end of the set
And it won't even matter then
The reason is that we are interrupted by your noise
In fact, don't even take any drinks
Or no cash register ringing, etcetеra
Like to introduce the musicians of thе Jazz Workshop
Dannie Richmond, drums
Eric Dolphy, alto saxophone, clarinet, bassoon, oboe, flute
Did I miss anything?
Ted Curson, trumpet
Like to open this set with a composition that's based on a folk song form
Has no title yet, so it'll probably appear on your records someplace titled
Something like, um—
What could replace "Opus"?
Like "Opus," or "New Series One"
"Folk Series"

[Instrumental]
