Unsquare Dance is an iconic musical piece written by the American jazz composer Dave Brubeck in 1961.Written in 7/4 time, the piece is a typical example of Brubeck's exploration of time signatures. According to Brubeck, it was written during a single trip from his home to the recording studio and was recorded the same day. Based on a blues form, the piece is driven by a strong bass figure, with percussion provided primarily by the rim of the snare drum and hand claps. Unsquare Dance was initially included on the album Time Further Out and even became a hit single, peaking at #74 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. This arrangement is for SATB Saxophone Quartet, with optional percussion. It is suitable for a variety of concert programs and settings, with the potential for audience participation. Duration is 2:18. Contact me at james.pybus56@gmail.com.
