Birdland—Joe Zawinul/arr. John Berry. Originally
composed for Weather Report and released in

standard has been recorded by countless
artists through the years. This chart is a slightly
truncated version for young players that still
retains the dynamic feel and sound of the original.
Ideal for young players, it's scored for standard
jazz ensemble with no solos but is playable with
optional reduced or expanded instrumentations.
Always a favorite and highly recommended!

Chameleon—Herbie Hancock/arr. Victor Lopez.
Herbie Hancock for the developing band? Yes!
From his famous Headhunter recording, here

jazz-rock hits of all time. The melody is first played
by alto, tenor, trumpet and trombone, then the
trumpet section. Next up is a flexible, open solo
section with a solo line written for all the winds so
anybody or everyone can solo! The top note for
lead trumpet is written G on top of the staff. Super-
cool chart! Optional expanded instrumentation.
