Yep, it's in 4/4 not 5/4. A clever chart on a super classic that everyone will recognize, young or old. The bossa nova tempo is around 130 BPM and there are written suggested solos for piano and alto sax. Lead trumpet range is to written B-flat above the staff, and an interlude reoccurs to offer contrast. It all works great! Take Five has been skillfully arranged by John Zontek. (4:50).

Commissioned by the Northern Michigan University Jazz Ensemble, this jubilant tone poem portrays the Great Northern Railway that ran for a century from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Ocean. Beginning quietly in the distance, the chart builds steadily through a series of colorful variations and roars by at full throttle five minutes later. The fast swing train groove drops a beat every four measures (4-4-4-3) from start to finish. This is truly a marvel of modern jazz ensemble writing for proficient groups by one of the nation's most innovative composers. Duration 6:00.

Recorded by the University of North Texas Lab Band, this medium advanced swing tune brings to mind the legendary collaborations of Gil Evans and Miles Davis. Written to portray the vibrant arts district of the same name in Pittsburgh, the challenges here involve compositional rather than technical elements since the texture is largely contrapuntal and requires a linear approach by all players. Flute doubles appear in the soprano and alto sax parts, all trumpets double on flugelhorn, and there are five parts for each brass section. Solos are given to tenor and trumpet.
