Rock/Fusion. Composed by Lyle Mays and Pat Metheny. Arranged by Bob Curnow. Sheet music. Score and parts. Handelsware #SMP 1170. Published by Handelsware (M7.SMP-1170).

English.

Another amazing, exciting chart has been added to the Pat Metheny Series! Bob Curnow's arrangement of Metheny/Mays' composition Stranger In Town hits you in the face right from the start and ends in the same manner. With typical Metheny/Mays flavor, there is a musical shift in the middle as solo space for tenor saxophone emerges, followed by a full ensemble interlude which then takes us to a peak ending. Originally recorded by PMG on their album We Live Here, Curnow has once again masterfully arranged this tune to fit perfectly in a big band setting! 5-4-4-4.

SKU: M7.SMP-653

Medium Swing. Composed by Stanley Newcomb Kenton and Victor Schertzinger. Arranged by Bill Holman. Sheet music. Medium Swing. Score and parts. Handelsware #SMP 653. Published by Handelsware (M7.SMP-653).

English.

This is one of those superb Holman charts written for Stan Kenton in the early '50's that just swings like crazy. It starts off very soft and easy, with clever linear writing. It then roars into an alto sax solo, to be followed by a trumpet solo. A key change brings the chart to a great shout section before returning to the soft opening for a moment. Finishes easy and nice. A great chart! 5-5-5-4.

Recorded by the Dizzy Gillespie Alumni All-Stars. Edited by Dylan Canterbury, Rob DuBoff, and Jeffrey Sultanof. Arranged by Benny Golson. Jazz, Ballad. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-7340).
