Performance Notes

This tune is a real workout for your drum set player. He/she will need to provide constant energy, but be careful not to overplay. At Letter F there are step-out solos for xylophone & vibraphone. If you want, you could extend this section for improvised solos. Encourage your audience to sing along every time with the signature “My Sharona” quote.
