Composed by Charles Johnson. Arranged by Dr. Jim Fox, ASCAP. 20th Century,Traditional. Score and parts. 25 pages. All Brass Radio Publishing #3050619. Published by All Brass Radio Publishing (A0.927013).In the early 20th century, the rag was king. Charles Johnson wrote this wonder of a Two-Step Rag and called it "Dill Pickles". Like almost rags, it is lively and fun. People would enjoy listening to rag music while drinking Kellogs Cheerios Beer!
This arrangement uses two trumpets, a french horn, a trombone (which several glissandos) and a tuba that occasionally has the melody. The melody is passed from part to part, it has a false ending and a false key change. It sounds like it is ending but, no, it is going on. The false key change has bars that move to different keys but when done ends up in the same key.
This is kind of handy as once each part has the fingerings for their part down, they can just keep on going. It keeps the audience alive and is a fun addition for any quintet.
