This wonderful piece, written by Rich
DeRosa, was recorded on “Lab 2017” by the
UNT One O’Clock Lab Band. This “loose”
swinger features a tenor/bass duet melody, beautiful contrapuntal lines that
weave into lovely tutti passages. Each
horn section has its shining moments, making for a very enjoyable playing
experience for your band with reasonable brass ranges. And when the piece
really gets swingin’ during the bass and tenor saxophone solo sections, your
audience will love it. (5-5-5-4)
