Ensemble

This rhythm and blues classic was rediscovered by the Blues Brothers and quickly became one of their signature tunes. Featuring the trademark trumpet melody riff, this is also a great solo number for alto and trumpet with easy its chord changes.

Grade 2 Originally recorded by Sam & Dave in 1967, then later revived by the Blues Brothers, this tune helped define rhythm & blues. Paul Murtha's easy chart will sound great with any band and requires only limited rehearsal time. Dur: 3:00

Originally recorded by Sam and Dave, and made popular by The Blues Brothers, this well-known rhythm and blues workhorse is a natural for jazz ensemble. In the skilled hands of Roger Holmes, this one flows nicely but rocks hard!

Made famous at Woodstock back in 1969, Soul Sacrifice helped to put the group Santana in the mainstream of popular music. Interspersed with hot figures for the saxes and punches for the brass, you can use this exciting arrangement to feature your drummer and/or conga player. Also included are solos for alto sax and guitar.

Written and recorded by Tower Of Power, this supercharged chart is the ultimate in funk writing for big band! Paul has authentically recreated this famous tune using a tenor sax soloist, the trademark tight horn riffs and a churning rhythm section groove.

Here's a terrific medium swing chart (recorded by the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra on Heart and Soul) featuring a great groove, a catchy melody and the craftsmanship of jazz master John Clayton. Also included is a trombone solo, a take-no-prisoners sax soli and solo space for the bass. The shout chorus starts nice and quiet then builds to a deafening level with the ensemble roaring!

Paul Jennings' masterful arrangement from 1982 sounds as fresh today as it did 20 years ago. The authentic sounds of Chick Corea's classic are faithfully captured and this new edition is notated in cut time (rather than 4/4) to make it much easier to read. A real gem for every jazz ensemble.

John La Barbera has taken his well-known version of Chick Corea's Spain and done a great job of adapting it for the small band format. Certainly an exciting offering for mature players in an arrangement for six horns plus rhythm. (Grade 4)
