This short three-movement work cleverly explores the relationship between color and emotion. "Red - The Color of Hot" is set in a fiery funk style. The second movement, "Blue - The Color of Cool," is an easy swing with a fun "dixie" section to feature a few of your top players. "Yellow - The Color of Light" features an energetic multi-meter melody that explores optimism and illumination. A wealth of styles and teaching opportunities in a single piece!
