A jaunty swing feel dominates as this chart builds through the sections to a full ensemble, with a little time out for trumpet and piano solos (written or improvised). It’s got that indelible Niehaus trade mark on it!

As recorded in 1972 by the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra on their album Suite For Pops, this solo feature for scat vocalist or guitar opens with a big, full-band intro in slow swing before the 'funky 4 feel' takes over. Punctuated by screaming brass parts, ad lib solo fills by trumpet and tenor, and an optional solo cadenza before the final chord, this tribute to Louis 'Pops' Armstrong is intended for experienced bands only. Duration 11:30.

Mark Taylor takes this familiar standard and creates a powerful uptempo flag-waver for mature ensembles. The style slips seamlessly between swing and samba and provides some shining moments for lead trumpet along with the rest of the ensemble. Also featured are solos for tenor sax, trumpet, piano, and drums, a sax soli, and a screaming ensemble shout chorus. (Recorded by the Mark Taylor Big Band).

Holman has done a few arrangements of this tune, and this one may well be the best. Bill wrote this chart for the great Woody Herman Orchestra. It is written in a very bright swing tempo, and there is solo space for alto sax, tenor sax and trumpet. This chart has great line writing (no surprise there) and powerful, swinging ensemble shout choruses. Your band will really love playing this one. 5-5-4-3.

Check out this tasty setting of an old standard. It features an alto solo on the intro, then settles into a nice bossa groove. The solo section is double time for an added kick, with the bones playing the familiar melody in the background. Great writing!

The work is a musical depiction of the concept of ‘screaming and crying' in all its numerous aspects: a general shout and fanfare-like whoop to attract attention increases in intensity and changes into a yell of rage, then a wail of longing and a call for love, and finally cumulates in a battle cry. In the final section this increasing aggression is internalised and turns into a softly pleading lament. This fading moan proves to be the most intense manifestation of the 'cry'.
