Bee Bin Bop is the 2nd of 2 steel band pieces commissioned by the Ohio Northern Univ. Percussion Ensemble. Dr. Sarah Waters, the commissioner stated that when she lived in Vermillion, SD from 1997-2002, she learned of a dish at an Asian restaurant there named Bee Bin Bop and thought that it would make a great title for a steel band tune. Nash had already titled the first tune Woosah, which is a slow and figured that Bee Bin Bop would work as a title for the faster tempo tune. Bee Bin Bop is in a G major modality with a medium fast samba groove throughout the composition.
