Detailed Description
SKU: A0.999571
Composed by Rusty Toots. This edition: pdf, streaming. Jazz. 65 pages. Russell Ward #6306105. Published by Russell Ward (A0.999571). It’s the summer holidays. You’re 9 years old, riding around town with your mates on a sugar rush and everything is friggin’ sweet!
Inspired by the slang phrase wackadoo, this piece aims to convey a euphoric sense of crazy possibilities which are provided by the retrospectively simple pleasures of childhood. In Australian slang, wackadoo, as an exclamation, indicates something fun and exciting, but typically delivered in a daggy and unassuming way.
This tune certainly has some funky wackiness, but is underpinned by down-home, unassuming, blues-based chord progressions and a funky groove throughout. Nailing this chart for performance will require some diligent rehearsal from your players across all sections of the ensemble. Your efforts will be rewarded with a vibrant and unique piece of big band music that showcases the virtuosic skills of your players.
