Arranged here in a slow Basie style swing setting, this well-crafted chart is loaded with style! The band can really cut loose on the shout chorus! A solid choice for festival or concert.

This funky rock chart sure is easy enough...but we won't tell anyone! It's bold and contemporary with a big sound and huge impact, along with reasonable ranges and technical demands. An open solo section with written suggested solos and very easy changes will really build confidence in improvising. And, the most amazing thing is that such a playable chart sounds so darn hot!

You can't go wrong with this one! It's a famous tune by one of the most memorable figures in jazz, Thomas "Fats" Waller, and it's well within the capabilities of younger bands. It also includes an easy to play, written piano solo that sounds super. It's sure to make your band sound great even with limited rehearsal time.

Don't miss this one! Let your young jazz band cut their teeth on this great jazz chart from Miles Davis' epic recording "Kind Of Blue." You can't beat the combination of a classic chart and an arranger like Michael Sweeney who knows how to make it accessible for young jazzers. Written in 3/4 time for ease of reading, this piece captures the feel and sound of the original. A wonderful, important chart you will want in your library!

Recorded by Peggy Lee, Joe Williams, Count Basie and many others, this popular standard breathes new life under the masterful pen of Sammy Nestico. A flexible solo section allows for any combination of soloists.

Play it again, Sam! This one can be used as a vocal solo or vocal group feature (SATB or SSAA). The voice leading is just right, and the band gets a spot to open up, too. (Vocals in C/Db.)

Here is an easy swing version of a timeless classic! The saxes are in the spotlight, but there's also a short solo for trumpet (cued in all parts if you prefer a section feature.) Skillfully arranged for inexperienced bands, and it even works well for bands with limited instrumentation.

There's some solid swingin' going on here! The style will make your kids feel like they're playing in a professional big band, but with suggested solos provided and playable by reduced instrumentation, it's perfect for developing groups. Basic changes let students work on their improv skills, too.

This swinger cooks all the way through! It's the kind of chart that perks right along so your jazzers can really dig in and nail it! A suggested solo for trumpet is included. You're going to love that shout chorus!

Here's a super chart to feature the sax player who hardly ever gets the "good" parts! Your bari sax player will love getting some air time in this gospel-rock chart! It includes an open solo section for the bari sax, or any other soloist of your choice. It's a very appealing tune with a big solid sound.
