The second and more difficult of the two Sassy's. This one mirrors Thad's original in form and style. Slightly richer voicings than SCM-1001 but not an overly high lead trumpet part.

A follow-up to his successful Steppin' Up To The Blues, this new blues in F is as easy as it gets, but it sounds great and kids love it! Each chorus of blues adds a new idea in the winds and in the rhythm section based on the previous chorus, so the chart will come together quickly. In the solo section, the background figures are based on guide tones (thirds and sevenths) so the band will be able to really hear the blues progression and build easy solos using just a few notes.

A solid rhythmic fanfare sets the mood for this burning samba. As the title suggests, the rhythmic pattern throughout mirrors the Morse code distress signal of 3 shorts, 3 longs and 3 shorts. An infectious melody, strong rhythmic groove, solid full ensemble work, and an open solo section (written or ad lib) combine to create a really exciting piece of music for any program. Duration 4:15. Available in SmartMusic.
