Composer/arranger Carl Strommen has proven he has the right stuff to write for younger bands. This light and easy Latin original starts simply and builds. As it builds, you may recognize the chord progression to the classic pop tune, Sunny. The cowbell helps maintain the energy and drive for this chart, the solos for alto sax and trumpet are written or ad-lib, and the brass ranges are modest. Additional percussion parts can be added if desired. The lower instruments have an easy yet meaty part in this chart. The bottom line is a quality chart that's fun to play, educational and well received by the audience. This title is available through SmartMusic. (3:50)

Arranged here in a unique samba setting Michael Mossman provides some surprising twists and turns in this familiar Latin classic by Antonio Carlos Jobim. Every section gets into the act along with a solo for tenor sax solispots for the saxes and brass and some hard-hitting full ensemble passages.

Classy Latin sounds abound in this moderately paced chart that showcases the melodic and harmonic genius of Antonio Carlos Jobim. Opening with a rhythm section vamp the trumpets take the first chorus then provide a creativecounterline as the saxes take over. Scored to sound full with young players this chart will sound great with few rehearsals. Short written (or ad lib.) solos are featured for alto and trumpet.
