n Birk's WorksDizzy Gillespie/arr. Mike Tomaro.
In this classic minor blues tune from Dizzy Gillespie,
Mike Tomaro starts this version as a funky mambo,
but then shifts the style to swing and back again
to the mambo feel. This well-paced arrangement
features a great feel plus solos for trumpet and
tenor. There is tons of variety in this excellent chart
that will show off your band's ability to play and
change from style to style!

n Blue Bossa (Little Big Band)Kenny Dorham/
arr. Mark Taylor. Sounding full and richly varied,
here is a great six-horn chart on the timeless Kenny
Dorham jazz standard. The melody is first stated by
a trio of trumpet, tenor and guitar followed by the
full ensemble, then solo sections for trumpet and
tenor. Scored for 6 horns (3 saxes, 2 trumpets 1
trombone) plus rhythm section with optional parts

Highly recommended!

n C-Jam Blues (a la Mambo)Duke Ellington/arr.
Michael Mossman. Here is an excitedly different
take on this Ellington swing classic done in a
mambo style! Including a slightly twisted melody to
fit the style, Latin master Michael Philip Mossman
cleverly adds counterlines, a montuno section,
solos for alto or trumpet, and a vamp that starts
soft and then gains momentum. We think even the
Duke would have liked this distinctive chart!

n Camisa NegraDan Torosian. Camisa Negra
simmers with attitude! Beginning with a funky
bass riff, this Latin/soul groove chart features the
alto sax with a saucy melody and solo choruses. A
trombone solo comes next and leads into an eight-
bar drum/percussion break, ideal for featuring
additional percussion if desired. The ensemble then
begins building layer by layer as the intensity rises
to the final punch chords. The trumpet range is to
written high B-flat. Unique, cool and fun!

bpm. It's accessible for a solid easy to medium
grade level, there are written solos for trombone
1 and tenor sax 1, optional parts for expanded

H Coconut ChampagneDenis DiBlasio/arr. Victor
Lopez. Victor Lopez' arrangement of this great tune
by Denis DiBlasio is a more accessible version than
the original. At a medium grade level with an upbeat
samba groove, everybody gets some action with the
classic Maynard Ferguson trumpet solo harmonized
for the trumpet section in a playable range. There
is a sax section soli that can also be a solo for bari
sax or any saxophone. An optional percussion part
will complete the package. You'll dig this chart...
it soars, it excites!

Emergency Stopping OnlyCraig Skeffington.
A fiery Latin Afro/Cuban songo with a unison sax
melody sets up the high energy level for this chart.
The suggested or improvised solos are for trumpet 2,
trombone 1 and drums, and the lead trumpet range
is to written B-flat above the staff with an optional
D. The baritone sax and bass trombone players both
get a lot of action in the interlude. The title really
hits home, because this one does not stop! Highly
recommended! Optional expanded instrumentation.

n EncantadoraBret Zvacek. Emulating the music
of Antonio Carlos Jobim and Eliane Elias, this light
and breezy samba is an ideal change-of-pace
choice for any performance. With a title meaning
"lovely" in Portuguese, it features a duet of alto
sax and trombone with the melody at the top, solid
ensemble writing, a strong rhythmic groove and an
open solo section with solo sheets included, making
it a perfect teaching and performance vehicle.
Additional features include a brief trombone soli,
the ensemble trading with the drummer, and an
effective build to a quiet ending. Nice chart!

H
Feels So GoodChuck Mangione/arr. Victor
Lopez. Only rarely does a jazz tune cross over to
the pop charts the way this Chuck Mangione classic
did back in the seventies! Flugelhorn solo on the
1st trumpet part is featured throughout with the
distinctive melody and then with a written or ad lib
solo along with a tenor solo. The flugelhorn solo
range is up to an optional written high C, but the
solo is cued on the 1st tenor part as well. Victor's
arrangement brings this contemporary gem within
the range of the developing trumpet player without
losing any of the hip appeal of the original. Here's
a perennially appealing, samba/rock chart that will
provide outstanding performance opportunities for
your band and soloist! Highly recommended!

4 The Giants Walk Among UsRich Woolworth.
Rich Woolworth's original Latin chart smolders from
start to finish! With an up-tempo groove that is both
melodic and exciting, it also features a distinctly
unique section leading into the solos featuring
written or improvised solos for trumpet and alto
sax. A breakdown section after the solos leads
back to development of the opening section and a
restatement of the opening section. There's also a
chance for your drummer to get his fill of solos to
close out the tune. Pure excitement!

sax and trombone.
