Charting the Course Christmas Collection
(Six Holiday Charts for Small Jazz Groups)—arr. Ryan Fraley.
Young and developing jazz musicians can now study, learn and perform with
these flexible-instrumentation Christmas and holiday charts for small jazz
groups arranged in various styles. At the easy to medium-easy grade levels, all
arrangements are set in three-part scoring with flexible instrumentation provided
for all three parts in each wind book. Alternate parts in every combination of
transpositions and clefs let you build your ensemble from any combination of
instruments. The solo sections are provided with changes, as are mini-clinics
for each song with breakdowns of the spelled-out chord progressions and
suggested scales to use throughout each solo. Twelve transcribed solos match
the recordings note-for-note, and twelve suggested solos give younger players a
starting point with themes taken from the recorded solos. The 49 downloadable
play-along tracks provide every instrument an opportunity to sit in with the
recorded band. Not only does this collection provide outstanding performance
repertoire for small jazz groups, it is a wonderful teaching tool for playing jazz
and creating solos! Titles include: Deck the Halls; Good King Wenceslas;
The Holly and the Ivy; Jingle Bells; Up on the Housetop and Auld Lang Syne.
