A gorgeous, introspective ballad adapted from the combo version recorded on Mike's latest CD, this solo feature for alto or soprano sax presents all member of medium-advanced bands with sufficient challenges. Two fortissimo climaxes punctuate the otherwise delicate nature of this piece, and short cadenzas for three soloists (piano, soprano sax, drums) in the opening bars give it a unique start. In his score notes, Mike emphasizes the importance of playing with rhythmic precision in a chart that combines a slow tempo with 16th-note figures.

Absolutely one of the funkiest big band charts ever written. This Andy Clark arrangement of a great Don Sebesky original is loaded with appeal! Includes an open section for solos by any instrument and a drum solo section which climaxes with a terrific dogfight between the drums and the entire band! The ranges aren’t extreme, but it does require a solid trumpet section and a rhythm section that can play really funky to pull it off.

This unique set of 17 warm-up pieces for the young Jazz Ensemble covers the essential rhythmic and harmonic elements found in two styles of Jazz: even eighth note (such as Latin Rock) and Swing music. After the initial two legato warm-ups, the music is divided into four sections: Even eighth note examples in B flat, Swing examples in B flat, even eighth note examples in F and Swing examples in F. Each exercise builds on the previous example so younger jazz students will be introduced to essential rhythms and phrases in a well-sequenced method. The rhythm section parts are carefully crafted to allow maximum flexibility for each player. All the Warm-ups are designed to work at a variety of tempos and with various dynamic shadings, so each one can be used in a multitude of ways.
