Open Country

Description

Inspired by a recent trip through Wyoming and Montana, this even-eighth-note ballad from the pen of Mike Tomaro beautifully conveys feelings of wide-open prairies and majestic mountains. Sensible ranges, creative scoring, and written solo sheets for alto sax and trumpet make it accessible to less experienced groups. Rhythm section parts are notated with chords cued. Duration ca. 4:30.
Style: Straight 8th Ballad
