with Trombone Feature. Par SHERIDAN BONNIE. Superstar was a pop hit for several artists in the '70s and '80s, and Mark Taylor has given it fresh life as a contemporary-sounding jazz waltz. A solo trombone is featured throughout, with plenty of support from the rest of the ensemble. Also included are solos for tenor sax, trumpet, and drums. A distinctive new take on a classic tune. / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Répertoire / Jazz Ensemble

Grade 1.5 What better way to introduce the music of Duke Ellington to your young jazzers than with this wonderfully scored arrangement by Michael Sweeney? Even at this easy level this chart really swings and will sound great with limited rehearsaltime. Your pianist gets a rare chance to shine as he or she is featured on the melody while the ensemble answers. Later every section gets to play the melody and there is a solo section for any sax. The final section starts softly with saxes alone then builds as various layers are added. A great-sounding chart for beginning bands. Enjoy great flexibility with the Discovery Jazz series! Playable with 3 saxes 2 trumpets 1 trombone piano and drums.

Hypnotic Ciel Étoilé it means ?starry sky? in French uses the bass as a dark night of sound dotted with pointillist percussive sounds from the cymbals and crotales. The work is written in thirty-six bars each one a ?star? played very slowly and at varying speeds.Kaijai Saariaho is a contemporary Finnish composer living and working in Paris and considered to be part of the so-called ?French Spectralist? school of composition. Unlike many of herother works Ciel Étoilé has no electronic extensions but fully explores the multiple sonorities of the bass. She gained international renown for her first opera l?Amour du Loin and continues a prolific compositional life with awide range of international performances.

Written to feature former Hoosier Jeff Hamilton on drums this John Clayton arrangement gives this standard tune a few new twists and turns. While serving primarily as an accompaniment for the drummer on brushes it's a wonderfulstudy in ensemble playing in a medium swing tempo. Tasty! Recorded by the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra on “Explosive!”

Par ARLEN HAROLD. This well-known standard from the 1940s never sounded quite like this! Featuring a slow, simmering shuffle funk style, the rhythm section lays down the groove with the trombone section playing the tune. Solo space is provided for tenor sax and trumpet before the roar of the full ensemble is unleashed in a double-time swing shout chorus. This chart is a powerhouse! / Date parution : 2021-12-09/ Répertoire / Jazz Ensemble

Originally recorded by Lynyrd Skynyrd this is one of the most powerful arena rock tunes of all time. Opening in a rock ballad style the chart finishes with a driving rock vamp featuring guitar or other soloists. Guaranteed to bring down the house.
