Description:

Too Big Shoes is a fun 8-bar blues form in G mixolydian to be played with swung eighth notes. The chromatics presented in the work are primarily alternating between 2 and low 2 fingerings. All sections but the double bass stay in first position, with the singular exception of a two-bar cello line. The phrase “too big shoes” can be found in several musical motifs throughout the piece. In fact, in the “ride out” section, the musicians are encouraged to sing or shout “too big shoes” as they play. This one’s sure to please both your students and the audience.
