HONKIN’ HORNS by Joe Procopio HONKIN’ HORNS is an exclusive solo for two saxophones based on the shuffle beat - known as the Shag down South. It is exciting Dance Music with a swing feel and was extremely popular in the Fifties. The Shag is still popular in the Carolinas and remains the State Dance for South Carolina. HONKIN’ HORNS has the sound literally of two saxophones honking wonderfully together - almost wildly. There are very few saxophone solos for two saxophones that are as much fun as HONKIN’ HORNS and CRYIN’ SAXES. They offer great listening pleasure and are a delight to play. People love to dance to this music. Speaking from personal experience, I have never found any saxophone music that gives more pleasure to playing, listening and dancing than HONKIN’ HORNS and CRYING’ SAXES. The music here is written for Two Alto Saxophones or for Alto and Tenor Saxophone with a small quartet Piano, Guitar, Bass and Drums. A SPECIAL COLLECTION EDITION OF HONKIN’ HORNS AND CRYIN’ SAXES IS AVAILABLE FOR ONLY $14.95.
