Ensemble

George Shearing's classic from the 50's is arranged here in a moderate Latin style which is actually closer to the original version. Mainly scored for the full ensemble Mark includes a few meter changes to spice things up and there are solos for alto, trumpet and drums. (Flute is optional)

Arranged in a medium up-tempo swing style and featuring an alto sax soloist at the top here is a fabulous setting of this jazz standard for mature bands. Also featured is an extended sax soli with flugelhorn doubling the lead as well as answers from the brass and shout sections for the entire band. Destined to become a staple in the repertoire.

Here is Billy Strayhorn's beloved ballad, skillfully arranged with subtle reharmonizations and reworkings of the melody, all the while remaining faithful to the original intent. Featured are solos for piano and trombone. A gorgeous setting for the entire ensemble.

This is the hit song that started it all for the group Chicago back in 1970. In this easy adaptation by Peter Blair you can hear the distinctive horn sound and energetic rock feel. No solos are required.

Stan Kenton's signature version is probably the best-known treatment of this Spanish classic. Mike's easy arrangement draws upon this version while keeping the ranges and rhythms well within the reach of beginning groups. A real powerhouse!

Here is a great arrangement of this Latin classic done in an authentic Latin style but with a big band twist. All the rhythm parts are carefully notated taking the guesswork out of interpreting this complex style. This medium tempo chart features rich voicings, a feature spot without rhythm section and solo space for alto and trumpet. Very smooth!

The soundtrack for the classic movie Soapdish contains a wealth of hot Latin tunes perfect for jazz ensemble. Roger's sizzling setting will be a great addition to any concert, featuring short solos for trombone and trumpet and solid ensemble riffs.
