Description
Catchy minor 3/4 original as heard on Rich Willey’s “Gone With The Piggies” CD, only voiced for sextet.
68-bar form, fairly bright tempo (dotted half note = 60), fairly easy chord changes for blowing making the difficulty level intermediate. A good high school level combo ought to be able to make this chart sound good.
