BIG BAND STANDARDS
H In the Mood—Joe Garland/arr. Michael Swee-
ney. This one's a must! Glenn Miller's big band
classic is one of the best known tunes from the
swing era, and Mike's excellent arrangement
puts it within reach of young bands. Comfortable
ranges, easy rhythm patterns and written solos
make this a perfect choice to teach your students
how to swing!
2314268 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . E 40.00
H In the Mood—Joe Garland. This Glenn Miller
classic is a must for every jazz band library!
Carefully edited and available with a full score,
this arrangement has everything you need to
recreate the original including a trumpet solo,
and a short call-and-response passage between
the alto and tenor saxes. It's a guaranteed
crowd-pleaser!
2090959 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . M 50.00
n It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That
Swing)—Duke Ellington/arr. Ralph Ford. You
may think this very clever chart is all swing, but
it begins as Latin then alternates with a swing
feel. The tempo is bright at around 190-200 bpm
with suggested solos for trumpet and tenor sax,
a few piano montunos, and a big shout chorus
leading to a huge ending closing this fine chart
appropriately. Additional wind parts and a
vibes part are included for optional expanded
instrumentations. Highly recommended!
10756380 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . M 48.00
H Jumpin' at the Woodside—Count Basie/arr.
Rich DeRosa. This one just builds and builds!
Rich DeRosa keeps this Count Basie signature
tune swinging all the way and includes two
optional tag endings to keep the Basie style
intact. The solos are written out for piano, tenor
sax, trumpet and trombone and the lead trumpet
range is to written G on top of the staff with an
A on the optional tag ending. Optional parts are
included for expanded instrumentation. One of
the Count's finest!
10028198 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . ME 52.00
H Pennsylvania 6-5000—Jerry Gray/arr. John
Berry. Here's a perfect touch of swing era
nostalgia with this signature tune from the Glenn
Miller Orchestra. All the elements of the original
are here in this more accessible version including
the famous sax melody, written trumpet and alto
solos and, of course, full band vocals. A real
crowd pleaser!
10028094 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . ME 45.00
H Shiny Stockings—Frank Foster/arr. Greg
Yasinitsky. Frank Foster's composition Shiny
Stockings 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.
10071900 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . M 52.00
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!
2702806 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . ME 48.00
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!
2411486 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . M 60.00
H Sing, Sing, Sing—Louis Prima/arr. Vince
Gassi. Accessible and fun to rehearse and play,
this timeless swing tune contains all the key
ingredients for a real crowd pleaser! It features
the iconic drum pattern as it recurs throughout
and the solid swing style that has become so
familiar over the decades. Other features include
easy brass ranges (with trumpet 1 to written E
top space), a written drum solo and a big shout
chorus as the modulation brings it all home.
Here's a great chart that will be an essential part
of your jazz ensemble library. Optional reduced or
expanded instrumentations.
10277443 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.
10066743 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . E 42.00
n 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!

My Girl—arr. Rick Stitzel. Here's the classic Motown hit from 1964 and The Temptations in a
great-sounding chart for young jazz ensembles. No solos are required, just skillful scoring for the
entire band. Scored for standard jazz ensemble, but also playable with optional reduced or
expanded instrumentations. Nice chart!

reduced or expanded instrumentations. A solo break for drums and/or percussion offers additional
excitement. Very nice!
