This is a classic, lazy, slow New Orleans blues. Trumpet 1 covers the melody with a plunger and
is marked "ad lib a little on DS" so dirty it up a bit the second time through. Trumpet 2 plays
Bb piccolo throughout with a lot of "clarinet-style" fills. Caution: There are several written
high Ebs, an E, and a G (but the G sounds fine down an octave).
