My music writing "chops" aren't good enough to handle this task, but I think there should be a section in this article called Musical Style, just as in the Bebop article.

One thing that could be mentioned is that the theme (or "head") that introduces a Hard bop composition is usually played in harmony between two of the lead instruments, which should be contrasted with the heads of Bebop tunes, which are played in unison.
