Killer Queen
J.W.Pepper Editor's Choice Arrangement!
One of Queen's most iconic songs! This chart features a lengthy tenor or alto solo, with the choir switching back and forth between backup and lead. Playful and cheeky, it's a multi-generational favorite that works best in a comp set as a change-of-pace. Electric guitar takes the lead in the band, with big brass parts adding to the grandeur of the instrumental breaks. Combine voicings to accommodate a costume change!
Instrumentation: Piano/Synth/Guitar/Bass/Drums/Percussion/2 Tpt/1 Tbn/Alto, Tenor Sax
