About this item
Scored for bands ranging in size from 9-17 players, this imaginative alto sax feature starts out as a rich, warm ballad, then moves into a swinging double-time section with a written or ad lib solo for alto, and then to a roaring ensemble shout. A Jim Greeson guitar chord chart comes with each set.
