Don’t Play with Gunns!-Clarinet Quartet
Don’t Play with Gunns!-Clarinet Quartet
Level: Intermediate
This piece was inspired by Henry Mancini’s “Theme to Peter Gunn”. “Peter Gunn” was a TV detective series that ran from 1958-6 best remembered for the Emmy and Grammy award theme composed by Mancini. The arrangement offers the players a short written solo and the baritone a groovy bass line throughout. The saxes are voiced in tightly positioned chords supported by the baritone bass line with the occasional solo breaks here and there.
Ranges: All of the clarinet parts stay between E1 and F4. There are few difficult semi-quaver passages and the piece stays at an intermediate to advanced level of technique in the clarinet parts throughout. The first clarinet solo is more difficult than the other parts tend to be, however.
“Don’t Play with Gunns!” Is an exciting, powerful, and catchy piece that audiences and the saxophone quartet members enjoy performing!
