Pat plays this at just about every concert of the Group. It is on the First Circle LP. The featured solo is played on Alto Saxophone. This is a two chorus version in the original key, a much more demanding chart than the first version published by Sierra. Your alto soloist will love the chance to play this one. (10 brass) As recorded on Bob Curnow's L.A. Big Band,The Music of Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays.

Oliver's arrangement of this tune (also know as East Side, West Side) is playful in its ensemble writing as it alludes to the hustle and bustle of NYC. The bulk of this chart, though, is really a showcase for soloists, giving space to alto, tenor, trumpet, trombone, and piano. If you're looking for a familiar tune, scored to please audience and players alike, this is the chart for you ! As recorded on the Verve Jazz Masters CD.

This is a beautiful, lush, straight-eighth ballad on the popular Cole Porter tune Easy To Love. Arranged by Lennie Niehaus, this short (and quite dancable) chart exemplifies the Kenton-esque warm and rich ensemble sound we all love. There is solo space for piano (written out) and for alto saxophone. Originally recorded by the Stan Kenton Orchestra on their album Sophisticated Approach, this popular tune out of the Great American Songbook will put a smile on any audience's face. 5-5-5-3.
