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.
