The second and more difficult of the two 'Sassy's'. This one mirrors Thad's original in form and style. Slightly richer voicings than SCM-1001 but not an overly high lead trumpet part.

This is the third part of Thad's 'Suite for Pops'. This movement reflects the joyous retreat associated with funerals typical in New Orleans. Hard Driving Shuffle.

This tune is based on the changes to 'I'm Getting Sentimental Over You' but at a medium swing tempo.

This chart captures that island feel of the Caribbean. The simple unison melody is based on the A section of Gershwin's 'I've Got Rhythm'. Calypso feel.
