n Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!—arr. Gordon Goodwin. In the style of Basie and Hefti, this Gordon Goodwin adaptation of the wonderful holiday classic is set in a medium swing style. Not a drum showcase, but the drummer has plenty of solo space beginning on brushes, then to sticks as the intensity rises. There is a flute part on second alto (can be omitted) and a percussion part for vibes. The optional solo space is for alto, tenor, trumpet, trombone, and the lead trumpet range is to written high E. A great sax section soli rounds out this excellent chart. This one is so nice, you'll want to play it year 'round! Highly recommended! 10093207 Jazz Ensemble ...... MA 65.00
n Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming—arr. Bob Curnow. With a nod to the wonderful Dave Maddux arrangement written for the vocal group "First Call," Bob Curnow has created a gorgeous version for big band. Every jazz group needs Christmas charts to perform, and this one is beautiful in its simplicity and overall effect. It begins quietly in a jazz chorale style and gradually builds to a dramatic climax followed by a sonorous ending. There are no solos. Turn off the house lights, put the spotlight on your band, and you will be able to hear a pin drop when you finish this beautiful arrangement. Very highly recommended! 10185714 Jazz Ensemble .......
