Tomorrow Is Always a Good Day—
Paul Clark.
Tomorrow Is Always a Good Day is a
sensational ballad feature for solo trombone or tenor
saxophone. This lovely composition begins in a
minor key, keeps building to a modulation to major,
then builds to a huge, powerful finish! The features
include an impressive and accessible solo part,
full and lush ensemble support, and an effective
ensemble-only interlude. Truly a memorable chart at
this or any grade level! Highly recommended!

Ab with modulations and the vocal range is low E
below middle C to Eb fourth space. As recorded on

Trombones Under the Tree—Paul Clark.
Three carols that everyone will know are included in

First Noel and Jingle Bells that features the trombone

it works great with a featured trombone quartet, trio,
duet...or even solo trombone! It's an effective and fun
arrangement that brings your trombones out front to
add variety and cheer at holiday and winter concerts.

What Will Be—Matt Amy. What Will Be is a
slow, rock ballad to feature either alto sax, trombone
or trumpet/flugelhorn soloists. With a beautifully
conceived melody the solo part is highly emotional,
lyrical and appropriate for the style, and is supported
by an interesting harmonic progression. The soloist
is supported by sweet counter melodies, there's
a section for subtle improvisation by the featured
soloist, and a recap of the theme before moving
on to an ending with a brief solo cadenza. There
are options included for reduced or expanded
instrumentations and the excellent dynamic
contrasts provide additional interest and maintain
the direction of the chart. Highly recommended!

SOLO FEATURES
H As If to Say Goodbye—Larry Neeck.
Beautifully melodic and very approachable, this
lush ballad features your star trumpet or alto sax
soloist. A beautifully written melody and fully
scored backgrounds make this a perfect chart
for a young soloist, as well as a great vehicle for
a more experienced player. It will also sound full
and complete with a reduced instrumentation of 3
saxes, 3 trumpets, 1 trombone and 3 rhythm on up
to a full band. For that change-of-pace moment in
your concert, this flexible solo feature is the perfect
choice! Highly recommended!

At the End of the Day—Paul Clark. At the End
of the Day is an exceptional ballad solo feature for
alto sax or trumpet/flugelhorn. The solo and rhythm
section parts are completely written and the ranges
are modest with the trumpets never leaving the staff.
The lush background parts are supportive for the
soloist and the key change near the end adds just
the right touch to this beautiful chart. Very nice!

features your aspiring trumpet/flugelhorn or alto
sax soloist in a gorgeous rock-ballad setting. The
solo parts are entirely notated, and the ensemble

in lyrical style. On your next concert, showcase
the softer, lyrical side of your band with this tasty
change of pace. Highly recommended! Optional
reduced instrumentation.

Going Home—arr. Paul Clark. Here is a beautiful
and creative adaptation of the familiar theme from
Dvorak's "New World" Symphony. This arrangement
is just what you need for that ballad spot for any
performance. Written as a trumpet or flugelhorn solo
feature, it works equally well if you want to feature
an alto saxophone soloist. The frequently changing
harmonies and flowing counter lines keep things
interesting, and the limited ranges and easy rhythms
keep things simple. No worries here, this one is
highly recommended!

Lifelong Friends—Kris Berg. Kris Berg has
composed a beautiful, sensitive and mature solo
feature for B-flat, E-flat instruments or trombone.
The ensemble is equally important in this setting
at around 74 bpm that transitions from the ballad
style to a double-time section with the soloist
and then back to the ballad style. While the solo
part is written, there are ample opportunities for
improvisation. The lead trumpet range is to written
high C. This is an outstanding chart and ideal vehicle
for your advanced soloist.

Living in a Dream—Doug Beach. With a
haunting melody and lush ensemble voicings, here
is the perfect showcase for your trumpet, alto sax
or trombone soloist. This beautiful ballad will also
provide a perfect change of pace at your next concert
and will be a perfect feature chart for developing
soloists. The solos and the rhythm section parts are
completely notated. Highly recommended!

Night Mist—Larry Neeck. With a haunting
melody, this minor-key ballad is the perfect feature
for promising alto saxophone or trumpet/flugelhorn
soloists. The featured solo part is fully written,
although some embellishment by the soloist is an
option. The well-scored ensemble provides solid
support for the soloist, and the band also has
its moment in the spotlight with a lush interlude.
Sophisticated, yet accessible!

Summer Solstice—Erik Sherburne.
Summer Solstice is a soulfully cool ballad that
features either a trumpet, flugelhorn or soprano
saxophone soloist with solo parts included for each.
Beautifully relaxed in straight eighth-note style, it's
well-crafted with the solo parts entirely written with
optional improvisation opportunities. The solo part
offers interesting chord changes while the ensemble
is more than a simple accompaniment. Nice, unique
and more contemporary than most solo features!
