Product Description
Obnoxious Smart Aleck is a comedic novelty piece that is to be acted as much as played. The score provides guidelines for actions and reactions, but you may add your own to ham it up even more. Basically, the players are upset with the smart-aleck who is ruining their song. They stare and make faces which does no good, so they resort to tricks to try and lose the smart-aleck in the song. By the end they finally all work together to make music.
It is written for 4 instrumental players. The top part is the obnoxious smart-aleck who just plays accented blasts. Part 2 is mostly a single note drone. Part 3 is mostly 2 notes back and forth, Part 4 is whole note chord roots. The music itself is very easy. All parts have a range of one octave or less.
Perfect for any beginning concert that needs a good giggle! (And a good way to utilize the clowns in your band:)
4 page score, 1 page parts (baritone horn in both clefs)
2 1/2 minutes
temporary recording of just the music part played on piano
