Brass Class Watercolors by Bertie Brown - Art is Instrumental

Brass Class

original watercolor still life with trumpet, trombone, horn: 18" x 22"

Do you suppose

a brass trio knows

the power they have

when they take the stand?

with no bounds they can

sound like a big band

they get it just right

their notes high and bright

with jazzy quick licks

and trombone slide tricks

and then comes the horn

who sounds so forlorn

with whalin’ so true

you weep with him too

good thing that we’ve got

our sweet lollipop

and licorice whips

to make those tears stop
