(What Did I Do to Be So) Black and Blue arranged by Victor López is a beautiful ballad, and very playable by a young jazz group. The tempo is around 82 BPM with a straight-eighth ballad feel, smooth and lyrical melodic lines, modest brass range, no individual solos, and all the usual optional parts plus flute, clarinet, and vibes. (3:41).

Gordon Goodwin's I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day is played at a medium swing around 120 BPM. The lead trumpet range is up to written high G, there are terrific shout choruses, a few modulations, and solo space for all saxes, trumpet 4, and trombones 1 and 2. Excellent! (3:18).

There are lots of swing charts based on blues changes. This one is in a class of its own. An attention-grabbing intro leads to the unison ensemble melody, followed by a few choruses where all sections trade off with the lead line. The open solo section can feature any instrument with suggested solos included. After a solo spot for drums things get even more interesting and fun! The dynamic level comes way down and your bass player gets to shine with some tasty written solo licks. The final ensemble chorus builds to a shout section that really - SHOUTS! A very impressive, effective and playable chart!

A moderate tempo funk/ rock groove with plenty of unison and ensemble parts. Solos are based on two chords in the friendly key of Bb. A unison call & response section follows the solos, then it’s back to the bridge via a D.S. al Coda. Solid shout chorus to finish.
