Composed by Arthur J. Jackson, B. G. de Sylva, and George Gershwin. Arranged by Bill Wilson. Broadway,Musical/Show. 14 pages. Alexander Wilson #4796727. Published by Alexander Wilson (A0.775287).

From Now On, written by master composer George Gershwin and lyricists Arthur J. Jackson and B. G. de Sylva for the 1919 Broadway musical La La Lucille, starts out as a fairly straightforward tune, with straightforward harmonization. But when your ensemble reaches the middle of the chorus, hang onto your hats! Gershwin suddenly puts his considerable and innovative harmonizing skills in harness and you and your audience will be away on an adventure.   Our arrangement spreads lead responsibilities between first trumpet and French horn, although both second trumpet and trombone have critical countermelodic responsibilities throughout the piece. Performance time is approximately 1:44. Visit our website, www.tootsuitebrasspublishing.com, for a catalog of our arrangements available through sheetmusicplus.com.

Tomorrow's Hopes and New Horizons is a grade 3 concert band piece that captures both the excitement and the
hesitancy of growing and taking on new challenges. The theme and variations suggest life's varied paths. Similarly,
throughout the piece the different harmonies of the main theme's phrase endings remind us of our wide-ranging
choices as we grow. The piece is meant to
be performed with full concert band. However, the arrangement's flexible scoring provides the most performing
opportunities for smaller ensembles of all sizes and configurations, as long as all four voices are included.
Furthermore, the arrangement's solo and soli passages provide varied sound textures in the context of this
flexible scoring. The piece's ample yet judiciously placed cues allow instrument combinations other than those
written. Directors may use discretion in assigning solo passages as solos, as section solis, or either as solos or
solis from cued parts. Tomorrow's Hopes and New Horizons provides excellent opportunities to teach lessons in balance, blending,
independence, intonation, and maintaining a steady tempo. This stirring work is suitable for any concert venue,
and it is sure to please players and audiences.

Clarinet Chanson features the clarinet's chalumeau register, the lowest octave of the clarinet family instruments. A chanson is a 14th- to 16th-century French song for voices with instrumental accompaniment. In Clarinet Chanson, the band instruments take the role of the chanson's voices.

This Grade 2 piece begins with the clarinets playing a cantabile melody in the chalumeau register. The piece includes a middle section with the low brasses and low woodwinds sharing the melody while other instruments play a contrasting staccato accompaniment. The piece then enters a transition, and Clarinet Chanson ends with a restatement of the clarinet theme.

Clarinet Chanson provides ample opportunities to teach lessons in maintaining a steady tempo, blending, intonation, phrasing, and observing dynamics. It also provides an opportunity to teach the clarinet players how to get a rich, full sound in the chalumeau register.

Clarinet Chanson is a quiet, change-of-pace piece that lets your band and all of its players shine. Program this piece in any venue. It is sure to be well-received both by players and audiences.

Spain (I Can Recall) - Al Jarreau (Vocal/Synthesizer Solo/Scat Solo)

This is a lead sheet with a complete copy of the synthesizer solo and scat solo of the vocal version of Chick Corea's famous song Spain from the album This Time released in 1980 by Al Jarreau, a jazz fusion singer known for his singing percussion.

PDF format, 4 pages.

Lyrics：Al Jarreau, Arthur J. Maren 
Composer：Chick Corea, Joaquin Vidre Rodrigo

Vocal：Al Jarreau 
Synthesizer & Rhodes Electric Piano：Larry Williams 
Bass: Abraham Laboriel 
Drums: Steve Gadd 
Produced by Jay Graydon

Song Description 
　This is a jazz fusion classic from Chick Corea's 1972 Return To Forever album, Light As A Feather, with lyrics by Al himself. 
　The synthesizer solo was played by Larry Williams, a keyboardist and saxophonist of the fusion band Seawind, who skillfully used upper structure triad arpeggios to drive the song in a wide range. 
　Al's scat solo in the latter half of the song is a highlight. It starts with a relaxed phrase, moving in a close range in the first half, and shows a sign of excitement with flutter tangling in D (a technique unique to wind instruments that makes the sound tremble by fine movements of the tongue) at the beginning of the second half. The last four bars of the song are a perfect blend of alternating scales and blue notes, folding in exquisite ups and downs, and finally resolving to B major at the end. 
　In the chord progression, the second half of [B] and Gmaj7 (two beats after Dmaj7) in [E] and [M] are not Chick Corea's original, but he seems to use them in this arrangement.
