Big band - Medium to difficult

SKU: WA.55233

Arranged by Chuck Owen. Score and parts. Published by Walrus Music Publishing (WA.55233).

Part 2 of Red Beans & Ricely Yours (Commissioned in honor of Louis Armstrong by ASCAP and IAJE and premiered by the Jazz Surge at the 2001 IAJE Conference in New York.) This piece tries to unabashedly capture the sheer joy and power of "Louis' playing and personality. A double-time groove, alternating between a folkish straight-eight feel (almost a samba!) and swing, drives the piece while an ebullient, shout-like refrain opens and closes the chart. Solos are for trumpet (what else!) and guitar - but the dixie group found in Struttin' makes a brief reappearance as the piece powers up for its shout to the finish! A great closer! Difficult. optional Gt 2 and percussion. Doubles.
