Young jazz bands will have lots of fun developing their swing chops with this creative and very easy chart! Trumpets get a chance to use the wa-wa effect, piano gets to show off with short written fills, and the drummer has a short (or extended) solo spot. The open solo section (written solos included) allows the soloist(s) to trade-off with the band background parts, so they don't have to solo for the full 12 bars. Paper Jam is effective, easy, fun - and highly recommended!

A medley of four spy themes featuring Goldfinger, James Bond, Soul Bossa Nova (Austin Powers), and Secret Agent Man. Another clever, fun-to-play, and educational chart from arranger Michael Story, this chart will help students learn the stylistic differences between Latin, swing and rock styles and have a ball doing it. No solos, easy rhythms, modest ranges, and plenty of fun ensemble playing. Yeah, baby!

Of course! If you do any concerts at elementary schools or are looking for the perfect way to showcase each section in your jazz ensemble, this composition is a must. Starting with the bass, the narrator introduces each of the rhythm section instruments; then the alto, tenor and baritone saxes, followed by the trombones and finally, the trumpets. The styles range from a New Orleans second line beat to a bossa nova to a great Killer Joe groove. All of it is tied together beautifully with the narration and is sure to be a highlight of any program. The narrator does not need to be a musician, so enlist the help of your principal, superintendent, board member or music parent. Performance time is approximately 7 minutes.
