La Virgen de la Macarena—Bernardino Bautiste
Monterde/arr. Chris Sharp. Rafael Mendez's
trumpet extravaganza gets the Stan Kenton
treatment in a romping Latin epic. This will give
your trumpet section an opportunity to shine
while featuring your lead player. There's an alto
saxophone solo, and your rhythm section will find
this a fun challenge. This is the perfect way to bring
the house down at the end of your concert!

Let's Face the Music and Dance—Irving Berlin/
arr. Michael Philip Mossman. This Irving Berlin
classic feels completely at home as a mambo! With
some harmonic wrinkles and a terrific mix of scoring
styles, this chart has a great flow and pacing. Solo
space is included for alto sax. A must-have!

Mambo Over the Mountain—Rick Hirsch.
This catchy mambo is built almost entirely on the
rhythmic figure clapped in the first two bars. Its
authentic mambo flavor is a blast to play. After
two bars of hand claps, it's winds only, then the
rhythm section is layered in. Nice combinations
of instrumental textures keep things interesting
throughout. The solos can be opened up for as
many players as desired, there are optional parts
included for expanded instrumentations, and don't
miss the highly effective drum/percussion-only
interlude near the end! This is a great chart with a
lot of substance.

H Manteca—Dizzy Gillespie/arr. Mike Tomaro.
Dizzy Gillespie was a master of combining Latin
influences with the jazz idiom. This medium
tempo arrangement of one of his best-known
compositions really sizzles for jazz ensemble.
2384543 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .55.00
Manteca—Dizzy Gillespie/arr. Mike Tomaro. One
of the earliest examples of Afro-Cuban elements
into jazz, Dizzy Gillespie's classic composition is
updated here in a little big band format (3 saxes,
2 trumpets, trombone and rhythm section). Based
on Tomaro's popular big band chart, some new
material has been added just for fun! Optional
additional parts are included for alto, tenor and
trombone. This is one you will not want to miss!

(Little Big Band). . . . . . . . . . . .45.00
Mission Trail—Gene Roland/arr. Bob Curnow.
You will find this Stan Kenton Orchestra piece a lot
easier and fun to play thanks to this new edition of
the chart. The instrumentation has been changed
to standard big band, and the demands for extreme
high trumpet playing have been altered. The
original of this great Latin chart was recorded on
Viva Kenton. This is a laid-back, moderate-tempo
tune that brings you the best of Kenton and Roland.
You'll love it!
11202787 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .55.00
Mofongo de Mama—Michael Philip Mossman.
"Mofongo" is a popular Puerto Rican menu item,
and mama's version must be a particularly spicy
dish! Set in a moderate mambo style, this catchy
tune cruises along with feature spots for the brass
and alto saxes. Solo space is provided for any
combination of alto, tenor or trumpet, and a short
montuno section sets up the sizzling full ensemble
chorus. Spicy, indeed!

l Na Sombra Fresca—Debra Stempien, Greg
Turner. This medium-tempo pop bossa chart is
in the 1960s style of Sergio Mendes and Johnny
Mandel. The light and airy Latin feel gives the sense
of finding playful respite and relief from the sun on a
hot day "in the cool shade" ("na sombra fresca" in
Portuguese). A lengthy open solo section provides
improvisation opportunities for three instruments.
11348684 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .48.00
Naima—John Coltrane/arr. Craig Skeffington. One
of Coltrane's favorites and played by jazz musicians
everywhere, this sweet bossa chart is magical.
It opens with alto 1 on the written melody, then
the sax section, followed by the brass taking the
bridge. Features include a very nice, written tenor
solo and lead trumpet range to written B-flat above
the staff. Perfect for any jazz performance, you'll
be delighted with Naima! Highly recommended!
Optional expanded instrumentation.
10093179 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .52.00
A Night in Tunisia—Gillespie & Paparelli/arr.
Michael Mossman. Michael Mossman takes Dizzy
Gillespie's signature tune into new territory, with a
touch of mambo in this distinctive arrangement for
little big band. A perfect way to showcase a trumpet
soloist, the full ensemble also plays an important
role in this sophisticated and dynamic arrangement
for six horns and rhythm section. Instrumentation:
3 Saxes; 2 Trumpets; 1 Trombone plus Rhythm
Section. For flexibility, optional parts are included
for Alto and Tenor Saxes and Trombone.

No Hay Palabras—Michele Fernandez. The bolero
is Cuba's version of the ballad, and this hauntingly
beautiful melody with lush orchestrations yields an
expressive opportunity for both your alto sax soloist
and ensemble. The Paquito D'Rivera-style solo is
written out, with extra room left for improvisation
and an optional ending cadenza. Rhythm section
parts are all completely written out for an authentic
and highly emotional performance.

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 . . . . . . . . . . . .52.00
Puente Arriba!—Robert Skiles/arr. Paul Baker.
Puente Arriba! takes a trip to Mexico, opening
with a bravura solo trumpet cadenza before the
bass sets up the samba groove. The saxes enter
with the melody and are answered by the brass in
counterpoint. Lots of unison writing provides power
and confidence while energy and orchestration
continue to build throughout the melody and
provide a strong send off to the trombone and
trumpet soloists. The trumpet range is to written
B-flat. An interlude follows the solos and leads to
a sax soli and shout section before returning to the
final "A" section and a rousing finish. Dynamic and
exciting throughout!
10882939 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .50.00
Punta Sardina—Jack Cooper. This intriguing
samba was inspired by time spent on the island of
Gran Canaria off the coast of Africa. With melodic
segments moving throughout the ensemble,
the whole band will get a workout. There is solo
space for tenor saxophone and trumpet that may
be opened up. An excellent selection to contrast a
swing chart at a concert or festival.
11198766 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .50.00
Recorda Me—Joe Henderson/arr. Mike Kamuf.
Joe Henderson's familiar jazz standard is set here
in a Latin groove played at about 156 bpm. The
melody is handled by tenor sax, trumpet and guitar
with written solos provided for tenor and trumpet. A
clever interlude followed by a dynamic shout chorus
with some drum fills sets this chart apart. The lead
trumpet range is to G top of staff, and optional parts
are included for expanded instrumentations. Truly a
first-class chart!
10997200 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .48.00
H
Sabor de Cuba—Victor Lopez. Looking for a
hot Latin chart? This Victor Lopez original is very
hot indeed. It's an Afro-Cuban show-stopper
that's jam-packed with lines that bounce section
to section, then a suggested tenor sax solo with
backgrounds. The lead trumpet range is to written
A above the staff with an optional high D. There are
two auxiliary percussion parts included that really
make this chart come alive, plus optional flute and
vibraphone parts. You'll want to play this highly
recommended chart!

and emerging shout chorus make this compelling
chart a listener's and performer's delight.
11348688 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .45.00
H Spain—Chick Corea/arr. Paul Jennings. Paul
Jennings' masterful arrangement from 1982 has
stood the test of time and sounds as fresh today as
it did when it was written. The authentic sounds of
Chick Corea's classic are faithfully captured - and
this new edition, notated in cut time rather than 4/4,
makes it much easier to read. A real gem for every
jazz ensemble!

10028159 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . .52.00

pays tribute to Mr. Rogers' famous TV theme in
this laid-back samba setting. This is not juvenile
sounding, it's very sophisticated and hip, with solos

tremendous audience appeal!
