Alone Together—arr. Bob Curnow. This lush
chart on Alone Together is a beautiful ensemble
jazz ballad with a haunting melody and lots of
interesting counterpoint and harmonies. Written
with comfortable ranges and played at around 60
bpm, it has brief tenor sax and trombone solos.
Great change-of-pace programming for any
occasion!

H Breathing—Fred Sturm/arr. David Springfield.
One of the last original pieces composed by the late
Fred Sturm, this may be one of the most beautiful.
Sensitively arranged by David Springfield as a
quiet ballad concert piece with no improvisation,
Breathing will serve well on any concert program
as a quiet interlude that will showcase the
gracefulness of your ensemble and delight those in
your audience. Highly recommended!

A Child Is Born—Thad Jones/arr. Mike Carubia.
Thad Jones' most popular and unforgettable
composition will provide your players with a
great ballad experience. Mike Carubia's tasteful
arrangement captures all the charm of the original
without the difficulty, and features a written piano
and optional flute melody to start the second
chorus. Also appropriate for holiday performances,
A Child is Born will capture the hearts of your
audiences and the young musicians who play this
soulful tune. Highly recommended!

Come Sunday—Duke Ellington/arr. Rick Hirsch.
Oh yeah, a beautiful straight-eighth Ellington
ballad! Come Sunday is played around 84
bpm with gorgeous voicings throughout. There
are suggested or improvised solos for tenor
and trombone, very easy brass ranges, and
all the usual optional parts to include vibes for
expanded instrumentations. Very playable and
very satisfying!

e Dreamsville—Henry Mancini/arr. John Berry.
From the classic TV show Peter Gunn, Henry
Mancini's iconic ballad is lush and silky. There's
nothing fancy here, just nicely scored harmonies
and melodies for young players. This beautiful
ensemble ballad is a great choice for festivals,
or change-of-pace concert programming, and
it's playable with optional reduced or expanded
instrumentations. Highly recommended!

H Georgia on My Mind—Hoagy Carmichael/arr.
Michael Sweeney. This enduring standard by
Hoagy Carmichael continues to sound fresh year
after year. This easy setting hints at the great
Ray Charles' recording, with its lush harmonies
and bluesy ballad style. Short solos for trumpet,
sax and trombone can also be played as section
tuttis. Great for developing balance and ensemble
playing.

e Goodbye Pork Pie Hat—Charles Mingus/arr.
Alan Baylock. Alan Baylock has created a sonic
landscape for the full ensemble and a tenor
saxophone soloist from one of Charles Mingus'
most lovely and soulful ballads. The tenor gets
the spotlight with an elongated introduction
and cadenzas at the end while the full band is
highlighted with beautifully scored ensemble
passages in between. The lead trumpet range is
to written B-flat, and optional parts are included for
flute and vibes. Ideal as a festival change-of-pace
selection, it's also perfect for almost any program.
A truly superb setting!
