Here is a terrific medium-tempo shuffle chart that the Buddy Rich Band played all the time. It was recorded on the Swingin' New Big Band album (CD available from Sierra Music), and has wide open blowing space in the blues format. A great shout chorus finishes off this exciting, swinging chart from Oliver Nelson. 5-4-4-3.

This is surely one of Gershwin's most beautiful melodies, and Potts arranged it to feature trumpet throughout (as recorded on the 1959 album The Jazz Soul of Porgy and Bess, featuring the Bill Potts Big Band) . Lush orchestration, rich harmonies, reasonable ranges and a touching ending make this chart a great choice for festival programming. This should be in every big band book. 5-5-5-4.

New to the Sierra Music family, Tom Molter has written an exciting and compelling piece akin the big band charts inspired by the music of Pat Metheny. Apollo's Reel is set in a bright 3 feel with temporary shifts to a 4/4-swing feel. This modern piece will provide energy and depth to any concert. 5-4-4-4.

Also known as Patterns For Orchestra (as recorded on the Verve jazz masters 48 CD), this is one of Nelson's very interesting charts. It has a very angular, exciting melody in a brisk swing tempo, and lots of solo space for trombone (as recorded by J.J. Johnson). The solo space could be filled by piano or any other instrument as well. The instrumentation has been converted to 5-4-4-4, a standard big band.

This edited version of Where's Teddy (as played and recorded by Maynard Ferguson's Birdland Dream Band) is much more playable for the trumpet section as a whole than the original pro version (which is also available). However, everything else is the same and it does not sacrifice any of the original chart's style and charm. It is a medium-swing minor blues tune with solo space for trumpet, tenor saxophone and drums. 5-4-4-3.

The Jamey Aebersold Jazz Ensemble Collection (Volume 1) is a set of eight full arrangements that correlate with selected tracks from Jamey's play along Volumes #1 (Learning to Play Jazz), #2 (Nothin' But Blues) and #88 (Millennium Blues). Peter Blair had done all the arrangements and retained the exact form and solo structure as Jamey's recordings, so your students will be able to practice all the solos from these charts using Jamey's play along tracks! The eight pieces in the collection are in contrasting styles, including modal blues, Latin grooves, 3/4 minor blues and more! The Conductor's Score includes a CD with full recordings of all the charts and the rhythm section parts are fully notated.

Nelson wrote an album for Johnny Hodges (Black, Brown and Beautiful, RCA) featuring the compositions of Duke Ellington and also some of his original things. This Ellington tune starts out with a rhythm section vamp and swings on from there. The ensemble shouts just scream with wonderful, dissonant voicings that are a thrill to hear! There is solo space for Alto Sax, (of course), Trumpet and Piano. Ellington's melody and Nelson's arrangement ...... an absolute winning combination! 5-4-4-4.

Oliver had a great feel for the funky jazz style which was so popular. This chart features tenor sax throughout, and was recorded on the Fantabulous album. It is a very easy chart to play, and it would be a great addition to any big band book. This also could be played by a smaller instrumentation as recorded by Oliver (4 saxes, 2 tpts.2 trbs. 3 rhythm). 5-4-4-3.
