Movin’ Uptown
Although Movin’ Uptown has some technical difficulties (range and tempo), it shouldn’t present too much of a musical challenge for your students. The style and content are very similar to a number of Sammy Nest pieces that high school and college bands regularly perform. Since this is an up-tempo flag-waver, Benny Carter chose to use a 64-bar AABA song form instead of the usual 32, which keeps each chorus at a length of one minute. Each A section consists of and a and a b, and the B section also are split in 2 8-bar sections.SKU: AL30565 -

The challenge for the listener is to discover where Mozart begins and Mutter Gans takes over. Hint: It’s not as easy as you might think. Delightful! (2:45)SKU: AL48160 -
