This is a great, HOT chart from Maynard's Dream Band book. Beautifully written, with tenor and trumpet solos. This is the one everyone has been asking for! Included in the new Smithsonian recording of big band jazz. Let your band sink their teeth into this one! Full score/parts for 5-4-4-3.

The Maynard Ferguson Band performed a lot of Abene's charts over the years. This chart is an excellent example of Abene's very musical approach to a great jazz standard. Very reasonable ranges throughout. Features tenor sax, trumpet and trombone solos. Destined to be a best-seller! Printed as originally scored (4-4-2-3), but including extra parts for a standard 5-4-4-4 instrumentation. This one burns!

Billy Byers, known for his wildly successful arrangements for the Count Basie Orchestra, provided them with some of their best music ever performed and recorded. Originally recorded on the album Frankly Basie, 'South of the Border' has it all - Basie piano solos (written out), roaring ensemble passages, a swinging saxophone soli, and some compelling key changes. There is solo space for tenor saxophone, trumpet, and piano. If you want your band and audiences to experience to joy of Basie, then this chart is a must! 5-4-4-4.

Here is a free swinging, remarkable chart from a new writer for Sierra. Allan Ganley's reputation and legacy in England drew our attention to this marvelous arrangement of One Morning in May. The arrangement is recorded on the CD June Time (Vocalion), and stands among the best versions out there. Starting with a soft, swinging ensemble, the chart moves into space for blowing for tenor saxophone and trumpet, returning to the initial feel with a wonderful, warm ending. All brass ranges are very moderate. This will be a great addition to any jazz band library. 5-4-4-4.
