The Cat's Meow is straight-ahead swinger in the same vein as Benny Golson's classic Killer Joe. The melody is a very simple riff that repeats at different levels over the course of the form. The cat who inspired the tune is a furry exotic Persian named Berlioz who took up residence in the composer's house. Like most cats, his life consists mainly of eating and sleeping. He most often resides at the top of the stairs, and never bothers to try to get out of the way.

Plays easy and sounds cool. That's the perfect combination found in this carefully-crafted blues tune for younger bands. The trumpets and bones take the lead, with the saxes providing interesting counter lines. Then several bars of full ensemble lead to an open solo section for any instruments over simple Blues changes, giving young players the opportunity to improvise. If they aren't quite ready for that yet, suggested solos are provided. After the solos, the bones, tenors and bari get to shine playing some fun unison licks which lead back to the whole band playing a big finish. This chart will sound great even for bands with limited experience, instrumentation, and rehearsal time. Don't Miss The Bus!
