This cleverly composed tune will make your beginning band sound great, all the while making it easy to teach! Baggy Pants Blues is a laid-back blues swing chart with a relaxed and easy melody line. A highlight of this tune is a stop-time section with silent bars that adds interest and will teach your young players to count. There's also an effective and easy shout chorus that takes it home with flair. It's also a great chart to introduce both improvisational and ensemble playing techniques. The solos are written or improvised for any player, or can be omitted altogether. This is excellent performance and teaching material at the very easy level! Very highly recommended!
