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!

Take Five—Paul Desmond/arr. Rich DeRosa.
Perhaps the most famous time chart of all, Take
Five is in 5/4 - but the rhythmic pattern is clear and
consistent throughout. You'll find this arrangement
very accessible, with easy alto sax and drum solos
plus modest brass ranges. This chart features a
more laid-back style than the original and is sure
to be just as important today as was in the 1960s.
Recommended for every jazz enthusiast!

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!

start to finish! This chart will have your students

extended alto sax solo, this Rolls Royce of an
arrangement is definitely top-notch!

Cold Duck Time—Eddie Harris/arr. Alan Baylock.

straight-eighth boogaloo groove at about 120 bpm.
There's a written or ad lib tenor sax solo provided,
the lead trumpet range is to written C above the
staff. Players, audiences and judges will dig this
outstanding chart!

El Abrazo—Alan Baylock. The beautiful ballad
beginning and ending in this Alan Baylock original
will bring tears to your eyes. The chart then moves
to an exciting samba around 110 bpm for the half
note with occasional swing sections interspersed.
The lead trumpet range is to written high C and there
is an extended tenor sax solo with chord changes.
You won't forget this chart, it's special in every way.
A truly stunning chart, this one will provide plenty of
opportunities for your band to shine - it's the perfect
festival chart. Highly recommended!

Corea classic that is sure to be an impressive
addition to any concert or festival program for
mature bands. Perfect as a feature for your pianist,

La Suerte de los Tontos—Johnny Richards/arr.
Victor Lopez. Victor Lopez, who knows the Latin
idiom inside and out, has given us a powerhouse
6/8 Latin chart that will make your ensemble sound
like the Kenton Band. It's majestic, powerful and
noble and includes written solo space for tenor sax
and an optional Latin percussion part. Optional
parts are included for flute, horn in F, baritone/

with pure excitement from beginning to end!

PATRIOTIC SELECTIONS
America, the Beautiful—Samuel A. Ward/arr. Chris Sharp. Here the patriotic classic is
reimagined as an energetic shuffle. An a cappella sax soli chorale introduction gives way to a
driving shuffle that continues for the remainder of the chart. Harmon-muted trumpets provide
extra color in spots. The ranges and rhythmic responsibilities are moderate, and there's written
or improvised solo space for tenor sax. This arrangement is appropriate for civic events, patriotic
celebrations, or as an interesting change-up for festival or adjudication programs. This one is
really nice!

Battle Hymn of the Republic—arr. Mike Kamuf. Wow! This terrific swing chart is inspired
by the iconic Clark Terry version featuring two trumpets with plungers. Played around 112 bpm,
it has sample solos provided for tenor 1 and trumpet 2, a hot sax soli, and a stop-time shout
chorus with bari sax setting the groove. Check this fine chart out! (4:35)

Ever Braver, Ever Stronger (An American Elegy)—Gordon Goodwin. Orchestral in
nature, An American Elegy was written in tribute to the American spirit in the aftermath of the
9/11 terrorist attacks. It features written trumpet, flute, and clarinet solos and requires sensitive
playing by the entire band. As recorded by Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band on The Phat Pack,
this is an emotional and stirring work. Alto saxes double on flute; tenor sax 1 doubles on bass
clarinet; trumpets 2, 3, and 4 double on flugelhorn; acoustic guitar (nylon); acoustic bass.
