Take the Blues Train by Robert Longfield. For concert band. FJH Developing Band. Full set (score and parts). Score only also available: B1119S. Grade 1.5. Score and set of parts. Composed 2002. Duration 1:42. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc (FJ.B1119).
What a great combination - a locomotive chugging out of the station, gradually gaining speed, and the great American 12-bar blues form. This fun piece is loaded with special effects including a second percussion part with anvil, triangle, and suspended cymbal to simulate the sound of the train. The band adds a shhh to help generate more steam and excitement. A great crowd-pleaser!
