This rock rendition of the classic holiday carol Away in a Manger is great fun for bands to play, and audiences to hear! With an irresistible groove, this arrangement includes an open solo section for any instrument, and includes a written solo option. While written for traditional big band instrumentation, it is playable with just rhythm section and a single trumpet, trombone, alto saxophone and tenor saxophone. Limited ranges make this highly accessible to a wide range of bands. Check this out!

Haley Woodrow gives us a clever twist on one of the most recognizable holiday tunes in the world, Jingle Bells. A wonderful way to feature every section on the melody, this swing rendition includes an open solo section. Limited ranges allow wide access for bands, and while scored for full big band, it is also playable with just rhythm section and a single trumpet, trombone, alto saxophone, and tenor saxophone, or anything in between. A great way to get in the holiday spirit!

This new composition redefines the jazz ensemble ballad. Exotic timbres and vertical sonorities evoke cerulean blue colors that make this true chamber music for your ensemble. Using effects drawn from Romantic music of the late nineteenth century, muted Brass, saxophones, guitar, bass and drums combine to create lush backdrops for the showcased tenor sax and piano soloists.

Brown Shuffle was first recorded by Norway's Oslo Groove Company on their jaw-dropping album Anno 1990. Now, for the first time, this newly-engraved edition is available in the United States. Lars Erik Gudim's excellent scoring brings the full ensemble together with dovetailed flourishes and a hard 12/8 groove built from interlocking rhythms across the band. This fusion/shuffle chart features primary sections in 12/8, 15/8 and 9/8 with interspersed sections of straight-ahead swing in 4/4. Alto sax 1 doubles on soprano and flute, alto 2 doubles on flute, and trumpets 1 and 2 double on flugelhorns. The solos are scored for trumpet 2 and trombone 2 and can optionally be opened up for more. A wonderful chart for advanced groups!
