n Catch the WindPaul Clark. Here's a driving
Latin/rock tune your band and audiences will love!
The intensity is strong throughout and it has a big
finish. The written solo spots for any trumpet or
alto sax add interest, and the open improvised solo
section for any instrument has only three chords.
This chart will also work just as well without the
open solo section. Unlike some other charts written
in this style, even young rhythm section players will
quickly be able to lay down an effective Latin/rock
groove. Catch the Wind is powerful stuff!

H A Child Is BornThad Jones/arr. John Denton.
This wonderful jazz standard by Thad Jones moves
smoothly through a few styles - first as a ballad, then
as a moderate jazz waltz, then as a bossa in four,
and back to the jazz waltz feel - all the while keeping
the beauty and integrity of the original. Written or
ad lib solos are for alto sax and trumpet. Gorgeous
chord voicings and tasty contrapuntal lines support
this beautiful tune in a very tasteful way!

H Children of SanchezChuck Mangione/arr.
Victor Lopez. Here's some great news for bands at
the medium-easy level! If the popular Dave Wolpe
arrangement of this tune was just a bit out of reach
for your band, now you can enjoy a successful
performance of this Chuck Mangione classic using
this slightly simplified version! Victor has taken the
key down a whole-step, and has carefully adapted
the ranges, with the highest trumpet note being an
A above the staff. What a treat for developing bands!

n Dance Like No One's WatchingPaul Clark. Paul
Clark's high-energy Latin/rock tune cooks from start
to finish and sounds like a combination of Carnival in
Rio and Mardi Gras in New Orleans. The ranges are
very reasonable and this chart sounds much harder
than it plays. All sections have enjoyable parts and
the overall effect is sure to impress. Solos for any
instrument on a few easy changes, and opportunities
for the addition of unlimited percussion instruments
all add up to a sure-fire winner at concerts, contests
and festivals. There should be a warning attached
to this one...it provides too much fun for bands and
audiences alike!

temperature rise! Highly recommended!

4 It Ain't Easy Goin' GreenJim Mahaffey.
It Ain't Easy Goin' Green is a delightful trombone
solo feature that honors the amazing talent of the
great trombonist Urbie Green. This chart is an
easygoing bossa nova with accessible parts for the
band and soloist. The solo is mostly written, but
there are a few places where some improv chops
are necessary. Highly melodic for both the ensemble
and soloist, the ranges are reasonable and the
band is featured as well as the soloist. Accessible
trombone solo features are rare, and it's a happy
coincidence that this one is so great! Included are
optional parts for flute, clarinet, horn in F and tuba.

Recorded by the Cannonball Adderley Quintet
in the 1960s, this distinctive samba with a rock

Nat. Featuring a soulful and relaxed groove and

ensemble of three saxes, trumpet and trombone
alternating with punches from the entire ensemble.

measures thrown in for added spice. For additional
solo options, scale/chord sheets are also included.
Very highly recommended!

H Land of Make BelieveChuck Mangione/arr.
Victor Lopez. Get out the Latin percussion for
this famous tune! A lazy intro for trumpet and
alto explodes into a fierce samba that develops
into a mambo later on, then back to the samba
feel. Turn your first trumpet player loose on this
and drive your audience into a frenzy! This will go
over big for contest and festival performances,
too! Very highly recommended!

l Mi Bossa Es Su BossaJohn Edmondson.
Mi Bossa Es Su Bossa is an original bossa nova
based on a similar chord progression to All
the Things You Are. For variety there's a
contrasting swing section in the middle before
returning to the orginal bossa nova style. Piano
and bass and then trombones provide the
introduction before cup-muted trumpets in unison
take the first statement of the melody. The sax
section takes the bridge before the full ensemble
closes the first chorus. Optional written or
improvised solo space is available for trumpet 2,
and any number of auxiliary percussion parts may
be added for additional authenticity. Especially
designed for better middle school and developing
high school jazz groups, this accessible chart has
a lot to offer!
10461322 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . 48.00
l Mi Bossa Su BossaJim Mahaffey. This chart is

and its a crowd pleaser! Optional parts are included
for flute, clarinet, horn in F and tuba.

4 My Little Suede ShoesCharlie Parker/arr.
Mark Taylor. This appealing and light-hearted tune
by Charlie Parker is treated here in a medium-
tempo samba style. A small group comprised of
alto, tenor, trumpet, trombone and guitar takes the
lead for the first chorus. After a solo section for alto
sax and trumpet, the entire ensemble jumps in for
a chorus while trading phrases with the drums. A
very effective and unique offering for younger jazz
bands! Suggested solos and chord/scale sheets in
all keys are included. Highly recommended!
10461376 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . 45.00
n My Little Suede ShoesCharlie Parker/arr. Rich
Sigler. This chart is captivating! It is a bossa with
a straight-eighth feel at about 140 beats per
minute. It's clever, creative, fun to play and the
best part is it's not difficult to rehearse or perform.
Everything is written out to include alto 1 and tenor
1 solos, some melodic action for all sections,
modest brass ranges, and an interlude with
winds only building into a great shout chorus. A
"must-have" chart for sure! Highly recommended!
Optional expanded instrumentation.
