Jazz Ensemble - Digital Download SKU: AX.00-PR-0004481 Score. Composed by Benny Carter. Instructional. Score. 16 pages. Alfred Music - Digital Sheet Music #00-PR-0004481. Published by Alfred Music - Digital Sheet Music (AX.00-PR-0004481). UPC: 038081331959.Even when Benny Carter wasn't writing for Count Basie, many of his charts from the 1950's onward sound like they could have been written for Basie. Maybe this is because so many of Basie's arrangers (Sammy Nestico, Quincy Jones, Billy Byers and Neal Hefti) were influenced by Carter. The writing is straightforward, with simple harmonies, swinging rhythms and very clear counterpoint. Again And Again has much of the style of an alto feature that Quincy Jones might have written for Marshall Royal. Although Carter gives the pianist two little solo spots, the focus is on the lead alto. The backgrounds are spare and dry, so it is incumbent upon the soloist to supply the warmth and personality to tell this gentle story. Vibrato, scoops, bends, turns, and other devices can be used to bring this simple line to life.

The lyrics focus on her personal insecurities despite (or due to) her fame. The entire song never trays from the 2-bar chord progression of IV-I-V-vi.

Jazz Ensemble Jazz Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.927181 Composed by George Willson. Blues,Jazz. Score and parts. 46 pages. George Willson #6359467. Published by George Willson (A0.927181). Written for the T-Town Jazz Band and named for a Tulsa landmark, this is a big band swing tune in F minor blues with solos and exposure aplenty most notably in the third trombone part. The piece follows a chap who is happily walking (or jaunting) down Cherry Street. Three other guys come in and pick up his melody as a unison trio. This moves into a quick verse in the ensemble before the four players each take a solo turn almost like a combo. The party then takes off with the full band before it moves back to the trio wandering off while crowd bids them farewell and the original soloist takes a final turn. The reason there is such a focus on the third trombone is because this piece is dedicated to Dale Turner who was the third trombone player in the T-Town Jazz Band and a founding member of the band. We tried to get him to improv a solo here and there, but he wouldn't do it. We figured if we wrote it into his part, he would play it, and so the next piece I was writing was Cherry Street Jaunt, so the 3rd trombone got a lot of love. Unfortunately, the band had to shut down for a time due to COVID-19, and during that time, Dale passed due to complications from it. As a result, he never saw the part I wrote to trick him into a solo. The MP3 is generated from the composition program, but the video link is a live performance.

The initial idea for Somewhere (originally just a lead sheet) was inspired by the study of modal jazz harmony in a course taught by Dr. Johannes Wallmann, director of jazz studies at California State University, East Bay (currently Director of Jazz Studies at University of Wisconsin, Madison School of Music). In the case of Somewhere, it’s very subtle. The slow harmonic motion allows for different textures and sonorities to shift in and out of focus throughout the piece. Jazz Orchestra. Jazz Band. Guitar and Tenor solo sections. Electronic effects encouraged for soloists.
