This would make a great number for a concert. All three parts are of equal difficulty and nothing would be beyond an average high school player.
The medley begins with and intro based on “When the Saints” then modulates into a choral with a Trumpet 1 lead. The next section starts with a fanfare and leads into “When the Saints” again with a different contrapuntal feel and then into “Just a Closer Walk With Thee”. Following that is a short hint of “Bill Bailey”. The arrangement finishes with “Back Home Again In Indiana”.
This arrangement is loaded with many interesting and new ideas which will be refreshing to your players as well as your audience.
If you like Dixieland, you’ll love this one.
