Big Band Standards
H Perdido—Juan Tizol/arr. Victor Lopez. Mambo!
Arranger Victor Lopez has masterfully intertwined
a mambo and a swing feel in this great Juan Tizol
jazz classic. Featuring a fully notated tenor sax
solo, lead trumpet range to written A, a brief sax
soli and lots of excitement throughout, this chart
is pure fun to hear and play! Don't be "lost", play
Perdido! Optional expanded instrumentation.

H Shiny Stockings—Frank Foster/arr. Greg Yas-
initsky. Frank Foster's composition Shiny Stock-
ings is one of the greatest jazz tunes ever for big
band. Arranged by Greg Yasinitsky and scored
at an accessible level, this chart has all the
ingredients you expect plus a few short section
solis and an ensemble shout chorus. This
arrangement stays very close to the original, yet
is more accessible for developing groups. Other
features include a written solo for 2nd trumpet
with the lead trumpet range to written A above
the staff. This Basie classic belongs in every
jazz library! Highly recommended! Optional
expanded instrumentation.

H Sing, Sing, Sing—Louie Prima/arr. Victor Lopez.
Yep, this is the Sing, Sing, Sing you know and
love, made famous by Gene Krupa and the Benny
Goodman Orchestra, only arranged for young
players by Victor Lopez. The classic drum solo
that can be opened up for as much excitement
as the crowd can stand, along with a written-out
tenor solo, reasonable brass ranges and lots of
meaty ensembles keep this great chart exciting. It
will also sound full with reduced instrumentation
or with the optional, non-jazz band parts. It's still
a showstopper! Highly recommended!

H Sing, Sing, Sing—Louis Prima/trans. Mike
Lewis. Here it is...perhaps the most recognizable
swing tune of all time! This incredible transcription
is as close as you're going to come to the original
(which included clarinet and less than a full
compliment of brass). This chart is scored for a
standard 5 saxes, 4 trumpets, 4 trombones and
rhythm, but aside from that, it is the original as
played by Benny Goodman. Every lick is there,
including all the Gene Krupa drum breaks! This
chart is a must for every big band's library!

4 Stompin' at the Savoy—arr. Greg Yasinitsky.
After the initial statement, Greg Yasinitsky gives
this Benny Goodman treasure an updated and
contemporary flair while remaining true to the
original. It's all there in this exciting chart... nice
dynamic contrasts, a stop-time section, a sax
section soli, ensemble interludes, a written or
improvised trumpet 2 solo, and it's all played
around 168 bpm. The lead trumpet range is to
written B-flat above the staff and optional parts
are included for expanded instrumentations. Solid
with proven appeal!

H String of Pearls—Jerry Gray/arr. Mike Lewis.
Arranger Mike Lewis has taken this swinging
Glenn Miller hit and arranged it for easy jazz
ensemble. His clever reworking of the solo
sections and the descending harmony line
makes this chart very playable for the young jazz
musician. The trumpet 1 range is to written F top
line and it features instrumentation options from
9 to 19 players. This is one of the ultimate crowd
pleasers and it's ideal for any performance!
10049681 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . E 42.00
H Take the 'A' Train—Billy Strayhorn/arr. Vince
Gassi. This chart swings all the way and is very
playable by a young jazz ensemble. Arranger
Vince Gassi offers a fresh take on this classic,
yet captures the essence of this well-known
Strayhorn composition made famous by
Ellington. It's scored exactly right for younger
players... not too difficult but with fun-to-play
parts. With brief written solos for 1st alto sax and
1st trumpet, and easy ranges, it also has plenty of
dynamics to teach. A superb chart you will play
for years to come! Optional reduced or expanded
instrumentation.

4 Things Ain't What They Used to Be—
Mercer Ellington/arr. Alan Baylock. Mercer
Ellington's classic blues shuffle gets the Baylock
treatment! The style is down home and the
solos are for alto, trumpet, trombone, and tenor
sax. Also included is a powerful Baylock-style
shout chorus and optional parts for expanded
instrumentations. It's a fun chart and it gets our
highest recommendation!

4 Whirly Bird—Neal Hefti/arr. Peter Blair. You may
have heard Basie's band play this great Neal Hefti
swinger, but this version is very accessible for
younger players at around 166 bpm. The features
include a written alto sax solo, a great sax soli,
and well-notated rhythm section parts. Includes
optional wind and vibes part, too!

known standards. Arranged here for little big band, and in a moderate and relaxed cha-cha
style, this chart features a duet of trumpet and alto sax and later a creative shout chorus using
mixed meters. Instrumentation: six horns (ATB saxes, two trumpets, one trombone) plus four
rhythm with optional additional parts for alto, tenor and trombone. This is a great chart on a
timeless jazz standard!

ing to the head. Instrumentation: six horns (ATB saxes, two trumpets, one trombone) plus four
