Published by Michael Gene Drake (A0.1348392). Here is the sheet music from my song “The Cannoli Man� which is from my CD “No Tan Lines�. This version was re-purposed from a big band version of mine for a Trumpet solo with 13 trumpets. The 4 Trumpets, 4 Trombones and 5 Saxes were re-voiced into 13 Trumpets with the original rhythm section. The lyrics from the original CD are: We know a man who moves from bar to bar,he holds above him a tray of sweets to eat, when he walks in a little show he does,he sings and dances of food he has to sell, you can’t deny this Brady street type of guy,he jumps and spins as happy as can be, The East side is where we all belong, when this man dances, we want to dance a-long.The Cannoli man he dances on his feet most every night,He tries to sell his goods to everyone who is in sightCannoli man he dances with his sweets up in the airHe spins a-round sing-in’ I got Cannoli and pepperoni Come on and dance Cannoli Man michaeldrakemusic@outlook.com    www.drakemusic.com.

Jazz Combo - Digital Download SKU: A0.979668 Composed by Roger Aldridge. Contemporary,Jazz. Score and parts. 5 pages. Roger Aldridge #546393. Published by Roger Aldridge (A0.979668). Shifting time funk (for 5 wind instruments and rhythm section)! The title expresses my disdain for contending with monster SUVs when driving on Connecticut Avenue in Washington, DC. As I envision this music, it is funky and adventurous. The piece is a minimalist composition -- the melody is only 16 bars. However, it has expanded improvisation concepts for the soloist and the ensemble. The ensemble's collective improvisation is to sound like music coming out of car windows in traffic. The sounds change quickly. Different kinds of music come, go, and overlap. Radios (or electronics) may be used for additional layers of sound. The soloists use four chord progression patterns. Each soloist determines which patterns to play and their sequence. The patterns can be played in any order. Ideally, the patterns are determined within a performance instead of before. The soloist communicates the patterns, and when to shift to a new pattern, to the ensemble by hand signals. Music styles can also shift within a solo. Performers can take the music in any creative direction they want to go with it.

Jazz Combo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.781983 By Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney. By Irving Berlin. Arranged by Aaron Hettinga. Christmas,Contemporary,Holiday,Jazz,Standards. Score and parts. 10 pages. Aaron Hettinga #6027125. Published by Aaron Hettinga (A0.781983). This lesser known holiday-season standard by the great Irving Berlin is available here for 4 Trombones and Rhythm section. This ballad had its debut in the classic film White Christmas with Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney.This arrangement was written as a Head chart where, after the initial rundown of the melody, the form is repeated for as many soloists as are desired before a final repeat playing the tune and proceeding to the second ending. Chord changes are provided in all parts for flexibility in soloist selection. For the most part, the ensemble parts are accessible to a broad range of playing abilities, but the top part is the greater challenge for range and melodic lyricism.Performance options: This ballad runs the risk of dragging along so slowly that it feels interminable. Even at a moderately slow tempo, it’s important to keep things moving. If it feels that the solo section takes too long, it also works well to bring the ensemble back at the B section of the melody (meas. 21) for a briefer wrap up.
