This piece is a cha cha written to depict a mutt dog and a pit bull. The pit bull would would bark at anything and anyone, but while wagging its tail. At the same time, the mutt would bark at the pit bull to try to get her to stop barking, eventually biting the pit’s leg and causing a whirling dervish, attack mess of hilariousness. True story! Cha Cha was a style that came after the Danzon. Studying both of these will help to capture the elements that will make this successful. The solo changes are easy, so have the newer students try shorter solos to get their skills started.
Ranges
Tenor E4 – Bb5
Double Seconds A4 – E3
Guitar C3 – E4
Six Bass C2 – F3
Duration: 5:00 – 7:00 depending on length of solos
Probably Elgar’s best remembered and most played composition from it’s use in graduation ceremonies, this march highlights the ability of the ensemble to present contrasting expressive moods in a single piece.
This lively refrain and variations from the French Baroque master gives the intermediate to advanced soloist a chance to show off the agility required of runs, turns and ornamental figures at a rapid pace.
