Ensemble

Latin/pop legend Carlos Santana has done it again with this latest hit featuring Michelle Branch. Roger Holmes brings us this adaptation for jazz ensemble using the smooth rock feel, mellow harmonies, and built-in horn riffs from the original.

For two Bb Cornets/Trumpets, Trombone/F Horn and Trombone/Baritone B.C.

Everyone's favorite man about the jungle has his own unmistakable theme that is surprisingly hip for such a primitive guy! This is a fun chart that really swings (from tree to tree).

From the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra CD Groove Shop, here is John's uptempo and energetic take on this Hoagy Carmichael favorite. Perfect as an opener, this explosive chart features tenor sax as well as dynamic parts for the full ensemble.

Grade 1.5 This enduring standard by Hoagy Carmichael continues to sound fresh year after year. The notable recording by Ray Charles with it's lush harmonies and bluesy ballad style is hinted at in this easy setting for jazz ensemble. The short solos for trumpet, sax, and trombone may also be played as section features. Great for developing balances and ensemble playing. Dur: 1:45

Made famous by the Ray Charles recording, here is a classic tune that everyone knows. Featuring one of the best-known melodies of all time, this easy arrangement for vocal soloist is easy to put together yet sounds great!

This lesser-known Bud Powell composition features an upbeat melody and happy-go-lucky style that works great for jazz ensemble. Arranged here as a small group within a big band, it includes solos for tenor and trumpet. A marvelous, swingin' chart!

Recorded by the Beatles on Let It Be, and notably performed on the roof of Apple Studios in London, here is a rockin' version for very young jazz bands.
