Tag Blues: from Rhapsody In Blue- for big band/jazz ensemble arranged by John Hoesly. Based on a theme from Rhapsody In Blue by George Gershwin. Rhapsody In Blue is considered an American musical masterpiece.  Written by George Gershwin in 1924, right from it’s opening notes it conjures up The Jazz Age, The American Scene, New York City, and as Gershwin himself described, national pep. The Tag Blues is a theme from RIB that is used as connective tissue throughout the piece. It is most famously stated in the bass clarinet.  It is know as the the Good Evening Friends theme.  In this arrangement, it is lifted from RIB and presented as a stand-alone blues tune.  There is a solo for piano and tenor sax, but any member of the band could step in and solo on its simple blues changes.  Difficulty level is intermediate and certainly playable by most high school jazz ensembles.  Lead Tpt G5.
