BIG BAND STANDARDS
He 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!

He My Funny Valentine—Richard Rodgers/arr.
Mike Smukal. Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart
gave the jazz world this beautiful ballad, and
arranger Mike Smukal sets it as a lush trumpet
or flugelhorn solo feature. The entire solo is
notated and can effectively be performed with
no improvisation. It also features a wonderful
double-time section with everything written
out, easy ranges, some nice substitute chords
and lush harmonies. This arrangement includes
optional parts for flute, horn in F, baritone and
tuba. This is an exceptional chart at an accessible
level! Highly recommended!
10049705 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . ME 48.00
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 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.
10093181 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . M 52.00
He Shiny Stockings—Frank Foster/arr. Greg Yasin-
itsky. 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—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
e 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!
10513990 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . M 52.00
He 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
H 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!

It Had to Be You—Isham Jones/arr. Mark Taylor. In classic Count Basie style, Mark
Taylor's well-crafted arrangement of this familiar standard is set in a medium-slow swing style
and features the full ensemble perfectly scored to sound rich and full. In contrast, a short piano
solo is interspersed that can be played as written or ad lib. A great change of pace for contest
or festival!

Jumpin' at the Woodside—Count Basie/arr. Mark Taylor. Here is Count Basie's famous
up-tempo classic carefully scaled back for younger players. Featuring the saxes on the head
accompanied by the signature brass stabs, this excellent chart still has the feel and style of the
original. The written or improvised solo sections can also be treated as duet features, first for
alto sax and trumpet, then for tenor sax and trombone. And, it's playable with optional expanded
or reduced instrumentations. Play it like Basie!

moderate swing tempo, easy rhythms, and written solo (or soli) sections for saxes, then trum-
pets. It's playable by optional reduced or expanded instrumentations. Highly recommended!
