Description | This muscular riff based tune incorporates a muted trumpet/flutes head and features the alto sax and an extended keyboard solo. The tag is a full on, all out vamp with an uplifting melody, interjected by alto sax fills. Word of caution - this tune is ‘loud’, unashamedly powerful and therefore needs careful programming in a concert performance. Featuring alto sax and keys.
