Every concert or festival program needs a great ballad that features a talented member of the band.

The ensemble accompaniment is robust, though very accessible, and the band alternates between swing and straight eighth-notes, something that's very common in more advanced jazz ballads. A guitar chord chart by Jim Greeson is included in each set. Duration 3:30. Available in SmartMusic.

The traditional Irish carol fits nicely over a Partido Alto Latin feel. The two-measure ostinato dances under a legato melody played by five saxes and a flugelhorn. Solo transcriptions for flugel and alto sax are drawn from the demo recording. Carefully-notated rhythm section parts spool down to a winsome last chord for piano and guitar. This is not just a charming and playable holiday chart. It's also a great entry point to an important South American style! Top trumpet note: F5.

If you have a beginning jazz ensemble, this work deserves your serious consideration. Based upon a traditional Native American song, this composition is a theme and variations tour de force! The simple theme is stated by all the winds with some Stravinsky-like punctuation in the rhythm section. This theme is then transformed through four key centers and a contrapuntal treatment before arriving at the shout chorus, in this case a beautiful reharmonization of the melody.
