This playful medium-tempo swinger features a smooth, self-assured melody that glides along a cool, slightly altered blues progression. Trumpet and alto sax carry the melody at first before passing it off to the brass section; saxophones cleverly punctuate the brass section with heavily accented chords. The saxophones take the melody the third time around, while the brass offers incisive interjections here and there. A solo section follows that features just the right amount of background writing that enhances the proceedings without ever getting in the way; the solo section may be repeated as desired to feature additional soloists. A swinging ensemble follows the solos, starting off at a simmer and gradually heating up to the exciting full-ensemble shout chorus. Don’t Let These Blues Fool You is sure to be a favorite for concert and contest!

Fiery Latin rock that generates mucho excitement. The rhythm section gets the groove going, followed by a Mariachi-style trumpet duet introducing the melody. Then everybody joins in and contributes equally with great ensemble sections, counter-lines and solis. The dotted 8th/16th rhythm is repeated throughout, so your band will master it quickly. Ranges are very reasonable, with the trumpets never leaving the staff. The open solo section contains only 3 chords. Add to the fun by including extra percussion instruments. Great chart that really does play a lot easier than it sounds. It's as hot as a chili pepper!
