Product Description
The Tulip ChBoogie is a fun and original duet written by David McKeown for two Alto Saxophones.
The Tulip ChBoogie is one in a series of ten Easter-themed duets each written in a different American dance style. Boogie originally referred to the piano style found in Southern State bars where the driving swung bass-line, often double in octaves, cut through the noise. These bass-line patterns were adapted by Big Bands in the 30s, and later by Jump bands like that of Louis Jordan. Later still Boogie was quickly incorporated into Rockabilly and RocknRoll.
The Tulip ChBoogie is suitable for players at an intermediate level and above, with the accessible key and range balanced by the fast tempo and syncopated rhythms and accidentals. With a playing-time of around one and a half minutes, The Tulip ChBoogie is a perfect upbeat addition to any performance program, formal or informal.
