Reminds me of a Charles Mingus anecdote I came across today:
> The reed player Yusef Lateef recalled his own experience learning Mingus music: βOn one composition I had a solo and, as opposed to having chord symbols for me to improvise against, he had drawn a picture of a coffin. And that was the substance upon which I was to improvise.β
