Awesome Sauce - Scott Watson

You're cool, likeable, and confident. You don't walk, you strut. When you enter a party, a hush falls over the room and heads turn because you have a certain "je ne sais quoi!" People say you're "the bee's knees" and "the cat's meow." You're Awesome Sauce and this piece is the soundtrack of your life! With its fun, blues-like melody and cool rock beat, Awesome Sauce by Scott Watson is sure to be a player favorite. The limited chromaticism, accessible jazz-esque rhythms, and style-important articulations offer excellent teaching moments for the director. (2:57) Awesome Sauce correlates to Book 1, Level 6 of Sound Innovations for Concert Band.
