Based on the famous Canadian Brass version by master arranger Luther Henderson here is a wonderful adaptation for concert band by Michael Brown. Opening with a bluesy medium swing feel the tuba section is featured on the melody along with a small group of players. Mid-way through the arrangement the style changes to an up-tempo Dixieland style with the melody cleverly traded between various sections of the band. This rousing number is sure to be a favorite.

A G Minor Groove for Concert Band-Written entirely in 4/4 and using a single tempo throughout Richard has created a marvelous work for young players that features logical pacing and variety along with a keen sense of rhythmic momentum. Using a recurring interludefor percussion and bluesy elements in the melody this is effective as a concert piece and also just plain fun to play! Dur: 2:55
