Bayou Farewell

Bayou Farewell is an original, melancholy, Pat Metheny style ballad with straight eighth notes and a beautiful melody. Graham Breedlove's use of color is superb in this solo feature for soprano saxophone (an alternate alto saxophone solo part is included). The use of flugelhorns will also enhance the color characteristics. Solo space is provided for soprano sax, trumpet 2, and guitar followed by a soaring ensemble shout section. The lead trumpet range is to a written high C. Unique and memorable!
