Another winner for very young jazz bands by Ken Harris. Great melodic writing and solid scoring make this chart a perfect training chart for young bands. This arrangement can be played with a limited instrumentation and its style makes it perfect for contest or concert use at this level. No Solos but plenty of great sounds.Super chart!

The perfect ‘first chart’, a light swinger that really grooves. A very basic swinger that sounds much harder than it is.

This chart really fills a void in literature for this level. It is designed to be played on synth with a cool electric piano sound, but we tried it with acoustic piano and it sounds great that way too. The piano part is completely written out- Frank's idea to create a contemporary sounding piece for a classically trained piano student is right on the money! Of course, it you are blessed with the student who is comfortable with improvising, so much the better.

This classic swinger will send you and your jazz ensemble back to the big band era. By borrowing rhythmic and melodic ideas from two familiar big band standards, Vuono has created his own big band classic. Alto and trumpet are both featured for solos, and their parts contain both chord changes and written solos. To accommodate smaller ensembles, this chart is playable with only five brass.

Georgia trumpet icon John Bradley commissioned this ballad that is a beautiful feature for solo trumpet or flugelhorn. Colorful and interesting harmonies combine with fresh melodic writing to create a piece that will surely become a classic. The soloist is supported by warm and rich backgrounds in the ensemble, and is offered plenty of solo space. A sure winner for band and soloist alike.
