Glenn Miller's big band classic is one of the best known tunes from the swing era, and Mike's excellent arrangement puts it within reach of young bands. Comfortable ranges, easy rhythm patterns and written solos make this a perfect choice to teach your students how to swing! 2314268 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E 40.00 The Jazz Police—Gordon Goodwin. This ferocious chart is totally hot rock-swing-jazz for the experienced big band, featuring solo space for tenor, trumpet and trombone or guitar. The lead trumpet and baritone sax will push this chart over the top! 2477652 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .MA 68.00 10012414 Dual Disc CD/DVD-XXL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19.95 Jumpin' at the Woodside—Count Basie/arr. Rich DeRosa. This one just builds and builds! Rich DeRosa keeps this Count Basie signature tune swinging all the way and includes two optional tag endings to keep the Basie style intact. The solos are written out for piano, tenor sax, trumpet and trombone and the lead trumpet range is to written G on top of the staff with an A on the optional tag ending. Optional parts are included for expanded instrumentation. One of the Count's finest! 10028198 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 46.00 Moanin'—Charles Mingus/arr. Sy Johnson. This is an awesome Mingus double-time swing chart in the original version as recorded on the Mingus 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! 2388650 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .MA 60.00 Moondance—Van Morrison/arr. Victor Lopez. Van Morrison's hit is a natural for jazz ensemble. Now for bands at the easy level, this minor-key swinger is incredibly hip! The captivating melody moves through the sections of the band, sometimes in unison, sometimes in harmony, and the solo section is written for all the wind players, so you can have anyone or everyone play the written or ad lib solo. This tune is a perennial favorite with jazz lovers! 2701897 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E 46.00 September—arr. Mark Taylor. Here's the classic funk tune from Earth, Wind & Fire in a terrific arrangement for big band by Mark Taylor. This one includes all your favorite signature horn riffs as well as a solo for tenor sax. 10016127 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 50.00 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! 2411486 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Stevie Wonder helped bring funk to mainstream pop music in the '70s, and this is one of his most recognizable hits. This arrangement is easy to learn yet maintains the authentic groove of the original. Playable by standard jazz ensemble instrumentation, it will also sound full and complete with 4 saxes, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones and rhythm. Optional parts included for flute, 2 clarinets, horn in F and tuba. Highly recommended! 10041752 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

This chart swings all the way and is very playable by a young jazz ensemble. Arranger Vince Gassi offers a fresh take on this classic, yet captures the essence of this well-known Strayhorn composition made famous by Ellington. It's scored exactly right for younger players... not too difficult but with fun-to-play parts. With brief written solos for 1st alto sax and 1st trumpet, and easy ranges, it also has plenty of dynamics to teach. A superb chart you will play for years to come! Optional reduced or expanded instrumentation. 10066743 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E 40.00 What a Wonderful World—Douglas & Weiss/arr. Rick Stitzel. Giving your beginning band great tunes like this to play will turn them on to jazz forever! You just can't beat the appeal of the tune Louis Armstrong made so famous, and it's surely stood the test of time. This very playable version is nicely scored where each section gets a piece of the melody.Very highly recommended! 2470819 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
