Description

The Color of Her Hair

Composed by Drew Zaremba (as recorded on Two for Tim)

Originally written for the Tyler Community College Jazz Ensemble, The Color of Her Hair is a medium, mysterious samba that explores a single melodic motif and it’s expressive qualities. This tune has a magnetic and flowing quality to it, and primarily features the tenor sax and guitar as soloists. The UNT 2 O’ Clock Lab Band’s recording is different from the written score, but in only very small ways. This piece makes a fine middle piece in a program, and works for high school ensembles and professional groups alike.
