Powerhouse (1937) is an instrumental musical composition by Raymond Scott, perhaps best known today as the iconic assembly line music in animated cartoons released by Warner Bros. The first use of Powerhouse in a cartoon occurred in the 1943 Warner Bros., Looney Tunes short Porky Pig’s Feat, directed by Frank Tashlin. Also in 1943, it was used in the Private Snafu shorts Gripes, Spies, and Rumors. It was subsequently featured in over 40 other Warner Bros. cartoons. The most well-known assembly-line usage of Powerhouse B occurs in Bob Clampett’s Baby Bottleneck (1946), in which newborn babies (of various species) are processed on a conveyor belt in time to the melody. Powerhouse has been used In The Simpsons four times. Simpsons creator Matt Groening once ranked Powerhouse as #14 on a list of his 100 Favorite Things. This arrangement is for either SATB or AATB Saxophone Quartet with optional Bass Saxophone doubling the baritone. It is perfect for injecting a humourous element into a concert programme; audiences will love it. Many saxophone quartet enthusiasts will want this arrangement in their repertoire.
