Open Mic Adventures CLII: “Pink Ghost”

The Portly PoliticoLeave a comment

Spooky Season IV is coming at some point this month (hopefully the Monday of Halloween week).  Here’s another tasty tune for your spooky satisfaction.

“Pink Ghost” is a happy little tune for trumpet, tenor saxophone, and electric piano, depicting a happy l’il pink ghost.

Here’s the original manuscript; right above it is “Blue Ghost,” which was written immediately before “Pink Ghost”:

I particularly like the cute little pink ghost.

Happy Listening!
