New Orleans is a destination for tourists and the Mississippi River, but it is also the headstream of much of jazz and blues music. This is a setting of two great traditional New Orleans melodies, Joe Turner and Worried Man Blues. The cellos state the first theme and then the chart expands with each section playing an important role. An exciting ensemble section provides a spot for improvisation or performing the written solos that are included. (4:45).

Joe Compello’s expertise as a writer for young players has never been better demonstrated than it is in this charming waltz. Beautiful melodic writing and memorable, singing counter-melodies fill this tribute to the famous river that flows past our nation’s capital, Washington, DC.
