Obtaining a good blend is always difficult with an “open” sax voicing as noted here at bar 73. It may take several attempts before this is achieved. This arrangement of Loose Change also uses the voicing of 1st Alto sax in prime unison with 1st Trumpet during ensemble sections. This is noted for additional support for a weaker section. As for dynamics, remember --- up the scale raises the level and down the scale lowers the volume.
