Ensemble

The definitive recording of this jazz classic is by Bill Evans, with other notable recordings by Cannonball Adderley and Joe Henderson. Paul Murtha's arrangement for young groups features a Latin style on the head then switches to swing on the bridge. Includes very effective writing for all sections of the band as well as solo space for alto sax.

Feature the vibes (or piano) with this creatively arranged standard that was written specifically for vibes legend Milt Jackson (heard on this excerpt). The melody is bookended by plaintive statements for solo alto sax, and the ensemble provides a lush accompaniment throughout.

Written as a solo vehicle for tenor sax, Mark has created a marvelous setting on this Hoagy Carmichael standard using a sensuous slow Latin groove. Very effective!

Here's the catchy Motown hit recorded by the Jackson 5 in a solid chart for young players. A solo alto sax is featured on the melody, but there is also plenty of solid tutti scoring throughout.

Recorded by The Association in 1967, this tune became one of the signature ballads of the decade. This nicely scored arrangement features a trombone solo, the trombone section, and also a solo for alto sax. The underlying rock pulse gives this chart added life and a nice groove.

This bluesy treatment of Billy Joel's classic hit from the 70's features a small group on the verse and later a swingin' full ensemble chorus. Solo for Guitar or Tenor.
