There a a few Shout choruses written for the ensemble with featured ad lib choruses for Alto Sax, Trumpet, Trombone & Piano. There is also an optional repeat at letter C if the director wishes to add more jazz choruses to the piece. This would be a great piece for a Junior College level or higher caliber of players skill. There may be a few high school ensembles that could manage it as well. .

ROSEBUD for Flugelhorn solo with big band-  The name ROSEBUD, of course, is the name of Charles Foster Kane’s beloved sled in the film CITIZEN KANE.  There is a sense of nostalgia offered in the piece which is a solo for Flugelhorn with big band.  The Flugelhorn soloist should be at the front of the band on microphone for the performance.  The work is not overly difficult and could be performed by a high school ensemble without difficulty.  It features a long flowing melodic line which is treated to both small ensemble and full tutti during the piece.  Also, there is a section featuring an echo (doppelganger) effect for Alto Sax and Trumpet.  There are no doubles except for the 2nd Trumpet which plays the Flugelhorn part.  An optional Tuba and Vibraphone part can be used.  Lead Tpt Bb5.

The National Anthem of the USA, The Star Spangled Banner, is arranged here for jazz ensemble.  While the harmonies are in a jazz style, the original melody remains in tact so that it could be performed with the audience or school choir. The brass ranges are practical for advanced level middle school students with some optional octaves for the first trumpet.  While the arrangement includes 8 brass, there is a considerable amount of doubling to accommodate smaller ensembles.

Rhapsody In Blue is considered an American musical masterpiece.  Written by George Gershwin in 1924, right from it’s opening notes it conjures up The Jazz Age, The American Scene, New York City, and as Gershwin himself described, national pep. The Tag Blues is a theme from RIB that is used as connective tissue throughout the piece. It is most famously stated in the bass clarinet.  It is know as the the Good Evening Friends theme.  In this arrangement, it is lifted from RIB and presented as a stand-alone blues tune.  There is a solo for piano and tenor sax, but any member of the band could step in and solo on its simple blues changes.  Difficulty level is intermediate and certainly playable by most high school jazz ensembles.  Lead Tpt G5.

Published by Bud Caputo (A0.826667). Thank Hank is Rock 70’s arrangement similar to what I experienced under the direction of Hank Levy while a grad student at Catholic University in Washington, D. C. It offers students an opportunity to explore the odd meters he commonly used to formulate many of his works, only on an easier level for advanced middle school and high school players. Audiences will also enjoy this diversion from the typical meters used in most jazz arrangements. Although scored for full jazz ensemble, the arrangement will work for smaller groups that do not have the full instrumentation. Auxiliary cow bell and tambourine parts will add to the flavor that was so commonly used during this era of pop music. Try to get the70’s flavor by using as close to an organ sound as possible, but a piano may be substituted. . There is 36 measure improvisation section that uses three chords, one for every 12 measures, and jazz scales are included in all the wind parts to encourage students to improvise.
