JAZZ/ROCK & FUNK medium
Crunchy Frog—Gordon Goodwin. Bass and
guitar kick off this original Gordon Goodwin
chart with a captivating rhythmic pattern before
the full ensemble settles in with the funky
melody. There's plenty of ensemble writing,
some in unison and some in harmony, and solo
space for all winds with suggested or improv
solos. The lead trumpet range goes to written
G-sharp on top of the staff, the tempo is around
115 beats per minute, and optional parts are
included for expanded instrumentations. This
is accessible Gordon Goodwin material that
is right in the pocket for this grade level! Our
highest recommendation!

Don't Steal My Stuff—Gordon Goodwin.
Gordon Goodwin wrote this funky chart at the
medium grade level to showcase trumpet 1 and
trombone 1. Everything is written out, including
the melody duet, the solos, and the featured
trades. The tempo is very accessible at 160
bpm, it's easy to assemble, and it's fun to play!

Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough—Michael
Jackson/arr. Dallas Burke. This funky hit
from Michael Jackson's Off the Wall album
translates into a groovin' jazz chart everyone
will enjoy. With lots of tasty licks for the winds
and very playable grooves for the rhythm
section, this chart is a winner!

The Egg—Dan Kramlich. "Which came first?"
is of little significance so long as the groove
keeps going. Your band and your audience will
have fun with this funky piece!

Fast Track Shuffle—Doug Beach. Here's a
laid-back, fun, and hip shuffle that swings hard.
With an infectious head, great unison writing,
and a swinging sax soli, this chart will be an
impressive and easygoing addition to your
concert program.

Feels So Good—Chuck Mangione/arr. Victor
Lopez. Only rarely does a jazz tune cross over
to the pop charts the way this Chuck Mangione
classic did back in the seventies! Flugelhorn
solo on the 1st trumpet part is featured
throughout with the distinctive melody and
then with a written or ad lib solo along with a
tenor solo. The flugelhorn solo range is up to an
optional written high C, but the solo is cued on
the 1st tenor part as well. Victor's arrangement
brings this contemporary gem within the range
of the developing trumpet player without losing
any of the hip appeal of the original. Here's a
perennially appealing, samba/rock chart that will
provide outstanding performance opportunities
for your band and soloist! Highly recommended!

Get After It—Jeff Jarvis. Bring the funk to your
group with this groovy chart. They can't help
but move as they play this tune and let each
section feel the music. You don't want to miss
this one!
