4 Nice 'n' Easy—arr. Quincy Jones. As
recorded by the Count Basie Orchestra on their
album This Time By Basie, this Quincy Jones
chart is a laid-back, swingin' masterpiece.
It's a wonderful, classic big band chart that
belongs in every library right along side I Can't
Stop Lovin' You and I Left My Heart in San

H Out of the Doghouse—Erik Morales.
Arranger/composer Erik Morales delivers! This
outstanding shuffle chart sounds like a big
old freight train coming down the tracks, and
it just builds and builds! There's a wonderful
section after the optional solos that features a
powerful sax soli without the rhythm section,
and there are great breaks for piano and drums
throughout. There are also some independent
bari sax lines and optional written solos for alto,
tenor and guitar. The lead trumpet range is to
written A above the staff and there's an optional
ending with lead trumpet notes up to C. This
is a hot chart! Our highest recommendation!
Optional expanded instrumentation.

H 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!

4 Star Eyes—Gene DePaul/arr. Dave Wolpe.
This is an outstanding, swingin' chart from
master arranger Dave Wolpe on this Gene
DePaul classic! It's a great tune set at around
152 bpm, with fat ensemble voicings, nice
solis, written solos for trumpet 2 and piano,
and optional wind and vibes parts for expanded
instrumentations. What's not to like?

There Will Never Be Another You (Little
Big Band)—Harry Warren/arr. Rick Stitzel. Set
in a medium swing style, this chart for small
band opens with a duet of trumpet and baritone
sax. The rest of the ensemble provides the
accompaniment, then a tutti shout chorus follows
the solo section. Suggested solos and chord/
scale sheets are included. Instrumentation: Six
Horns (ATB Saxes, 2 Trumpets, 1 Trombone)
and four Rhythm with optional additional parts
included for Alto, Tenor and Trombone. A
marvelous setting of a familiar standard!
