| All About Ronnie - Arr. Bill Russo |

There are also extra parts which allow the featuring of others (C, Eb, Bb, etc.) 5-5-5-3 plus soloist.
Score and parts, grade 4, style: Vocal. Solos: Vocal, various. |

| Begin The Beguine (For Doc) - Cole Porter / Bill Holman |

Johnny loved it, and so will you and your band. 5-5-4-4.

| Cubajazz - Holman Bill |
Stan Kenton Series.
Rarely does a piece turn up like this one. Although written for Stan Kenton (the mid-1950s), the chart never was recorded by the band (Holman doesn't know why), and it was lost for years. It is a sensational piece, combining Afro-Cuban rhythm (Latin) and Swing, and featuring solo space for tenor sax, trumpet and drums. It utilizes counterpoint between the wind sections over a Latin vamp and explores the perfect balance between counterpoint and dynamic ensemble writing in the Swing sections. This is Holman at his very best! 5-5-5-4.
Score and parts, grade 4 to 5, style: latin / swing. |

This is exactly as recorded on the new Les Hooper Big Band CD "Out of the Woods." It is a wonderful piece", written in an easy swing tempo, with a great feel, fresh harmonic content, lots of clever lines and solo space for trumpet, trombone and bass.

| Porgy And Bess Medley - arr. Bill Potts |
Jazz Masters Series.
Bill Potts' arrangements for the recording "The Jazz Soul of Porgy and Bess" are legendary. This medley is one of those charts, and it includes 5 different themes from Gershwin's masterpiece. There is space for solos for alto and tenor saxophone, 2 trumpets, trombone, piano and drums. This is a lovely, peaceful setting of these themes, with very limited brass ranges (1 high C in the tpt. 1 part). This should be playable by most bands. This is a chart with great musical value and no endurance demands on anyone. 5-4-4-4 (opt. 10 brass parts).

| Riverdance - arr. Bob Curnow |
Bob Curnow Big Band Series.
The chart everyone has been waiting for!! Eight minutes of amazing, dynamic, exciting sounds! This arrangement was commissioned and recorded by the SWR Big Band of Stuttgart, Germany. It is, of course, based on the centerpiece of the wildly popular show. Everytime this chart was performed in live concerts in Germany (and elsewhere), the audience just erupted with applause and standing ovations. This isn't an easy chart to play, but it is well worth the effort (similar to The First Circle in that respect). All ranges are fairly reasonable, with the 1st Tpt. part topping out at a written high E. This is recorded on the highly acclaimed CD Towednack, Bob Curnow and the SWR Big Band (available from Sierra Music). 5-4-4-4.
Score and parts, grade 5 to 6, style: celtic. |

Here is a most unusual chart, set in a celtic style, with shades of bag pipes and Scottish overtones.

If you're looking for something very fresh and different to program, this is the chart! 5-5-5-4 (can be played by only 8 brass).
