It explores the Byzantine Scale so there are a healthy amount of accidentals. There are a lot of fun ornamental grace notes and trills as well. In the B section, we breakdown into a slower more seductive dance with a solo saxophone part. This is accompanied by the band snapping their fingers to give it a characteristic feel. In the end we recap the material from the beginning with a little bit of a round and a big finish.Trumpet 1 goes up to D in the staff and trumpet 2 only goes to B natural in the staff. Horns go up to C in the staff a few times, but spend most of the time in their comfortable range. Also of note, there is only 1 trombone part and it goes up to Eb above the staff quite a few times. There is a healthy amount of percussion parts, but you’re going to want to make sure you have a really confident player on tambourine as it’s the most important percussion part in the faster sections of the musicLink to Listen/Buy - https://bit.ly/3bcHwFA
