Kick It Up—Rich Woolworth. What a happy
swing chart! It starts with the full ensemble and
lots of drum fills before moving into a gentle piano
statement of the melody. Then the trombones
start their "kicks," soon joined by the trumpets.
There are written solos for tenor sax and trumpet
followed by a shout chorus and more drum fills.
The saxes restate the melody, and then the whole
ensemble joins in for a full-blown finish. The
lead trumpet plays up to a high D, and the lead
trombone plays a G.

Moanin'—Charles Mingus/arr. Andrew Homzy.
Here's a playable yet very effective arrangement
of this signature Mingus composition. The familiar
baritone sax riff is handled by three saxes, and
there is also a substantial soli for the entire
saxophone section. Optional parts are included
for flute, clarinet and French horn. A terrific
introduction to the genius of Mingus!

Superb writing provides sweet sax solis, great
dynamic contrasts, and a wonderful shout chorus.
Optional parts include flute, vibes, and more.
Sammy would love this chart!

accessible rock groove played around 146 bpm

The Queen Bee—Sammy Nestico. Penned by
Sammy Nestico, this chart is a relaxed moderate
blues. Written for the Basie/Nestico collaboration
on the album Basie-Straight Ahead, it's perfect
for advancing groups. It is also a great chart for

Basie sound and feel. A must for every jazz
ensemble library!

Shiny Stockings—Frank Foster/arr. Greg
Yasinitsky. 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.

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!

finale. Classic Basie!

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!

Throttle Up!—Chris Sharp. This barnburner
will get your blood pumping! Built on the chord
changes to the jazz standard Cherokee (even
in the same key) and showing off the technical
chops of your sax section, this piece offers
aspiring improvisers the chance to gain the faculty
to play the standard itself. It features solo changes
for tenor sax. The lead trumpet plays a high C,
and lead trombone plays a G.

Work Song—Nat Adderley/arr. Erik Morales.
Wow! If Nat Adderley could hear this chart on his
iconic jazz standard, he would be pleased! The
first statement stays very close to the original,
which is a good thing. The solos are for written
or improvised alto and trumpet, and the solo
backgrounds are simply wonderful. This swinger
plays well at about 176 bmp, has excellent full-
ensemble passages, a bari sax and rhythm
section break before the last chorus, an exciting
shout chorus, and great development. This chart
has it all! Our highest recommendation!

Cold Peanut Butter—Scott Hall. This chart opens
by layering in players starting with drum set, then
adding in the fourth trumpet and continuing to
build until the full ensemble is in. With a playful
swing feel, it's a great challenge for advanced
groups to take on.

Fill in the Gap—Len Pierro. A hard-swinging sax
soli kicks off this dynamic chart before the main
head is picked up by fourth trumpet and lead alto
sax. Solo changes are included for alto sax and
trumpet. Lead trumpet plays a high E, and the
lead trombone plays a high B-flat. This is a great
chart for the more advanced ensemble.

Big Band 93 CD. It kicks off with a hot bari sax
intro, features some really tight licks, an extended
open solo section, and an infectious bari sax line
that drives the whole piece. Serious jazz for
serious bands!
