Rock 'n' Roll Party!
Watch on YouTube:
It's 1950's swingtime! This is my composition for flute and piano - or backing track.
It also sounds fine as an unaccompanied flute solo.
I've based it unashamedly on the 12-bar blues chord sequence.
Put on your blue suede shoes, grab your partner and get down on the dance-floor!!
Have fun folks!! There's even a chance to improvise along to the chords from section A to B.

Bill Haley and the Comets. It is often said that the song "Rock Around The Clock" (1954) was the world's first Rock 'n' Roll record...
However, the origins of Rock 'n' Roll are complex.
It emerged as a defined musical style in the United States in the early to mid-1950s, evolving from the rhythm and blues music of the 1940s, which itself developed from earlier blues, the beat-heavy jump blues, boogie woogie, up-tempo jazz, and swing music.
It was also influenced by gospel, country and western, and traditional folk music.

And then there was Elvis Presley...
