JAZZ/ROCK & FUNK medium
Sidewinder—Lee Morgan/arr. Mark Taylor.
One of the early and soulful jazz/rock tunes, Lee
Morgan's Sidewinder features a distinctive groove
and funky, riff-like phrases. In this arrangement for
little big band, a trio of trumpet, tenor and guitar
state the head in the beginning joined later by the
rest of the ensemble. Suggested solos are included
for trumpet, tenor and drums along with chord/
scale sheets in all keys. Instrumentation: 3 Saxes;
2 Trumpets; 1 Trombone plus Rhythm Section. For
flexibility, optional parts are included for Alto and
Tenor Saxes and Trombone. Highly recommended!

Sir Duke—Stevie Wonder/arr. Michael Mossman.
In 1977 Stevie Wonder was in his prime and Sir
Duke was on top of the charts. Michael Philip
Mossman takes this familiar hit and adds his own
unique touch. The opening features the brass with
sax section fills. The middle section goes into a
double-time swing and includes a solo for tenor
sax, a soli for the saxes, and a drum break. All
the familiar lines from the original are there too!
Suggested solos are included along with scale/
chord sheets in all keys. Highly recommended!

Slim Chickens—Kris Berg. Here's Kris Berg's
chicken chart for 2019! Slim Chickens is a
melodic funk chart over a nice progression and
it's accessible for developing groups with the lead
trumpet range going to written G top staff. There
are written suggested solos for tenor sax 1 and
trombone 1 with very cool backgrounds supporting
the soloists. It cooks at around 148 bpm with some
nice bari sax licks, a sax soli, and full-sounding
ensemble sections. Nothing slim here, it's a great
chart, and it's highly recommended!

Soul Proprietor—Ellen Rowe. A gospel rocker
with a straight-eighth feel - this chart rocks quietly
and gradually builds in intensity to the written or
improvised solo space for any saxophone, any
rhythm section player, or any brass player. Do not
miss the saxophone section soli without the rhythm
section that materializes after the solos. Then it's
back to the recap and a surprise ending. With its
varied textures, strong melody and happy attitude,
this chart is highly recommended!

Star Eyes—Don Raye & Gene DePaul/arr. Rick
Hirsch. This arrangement of the classic tune is a
great fit for any performance or classroom. At a
moderate 148 bpm, this chart has written eight-
bar solos for alto sax 1, tenor sax 1, trumpet 1, and
trombone 1 to let your leads be heard. This is an
arrangement that every library should have.

Steampunk—Erik Morales. Heavy metal for big
band! Guitar is the featured solo instrument in
this very cool chart, so if you, the band and your
drummer dig a rock vehicle to wake everyone up,
this is it. The lead trumpet range is only to written
G on top of the staff, optional parts are included for
expanded instrumentations, and a suggested guitar
solo part is provided if needed. Steampunk is totally
exciting and a great vehicle for guitar and big band!

Superstition—Stevie Wonder/arr. Mike Tomaro.
Mike Tomaro weaves this funk classic by Stevie
Wonder through a series of new twists and turns,
but he is careful to preserve the great groove
and signature horn riffs of the original. There are
featured solos for alto and trumpet in this style
defining hit that sets the pace for the genre!
