Symphony in Riffs
Symphony In Riffs is Benny Carter’s most famous piece. Originally composed and arranged in the 1930’s for 4 reeds and 5 brass, Benny re-scored this version for a larger band some 50 years later. Benny was known for his idiomatic saxophone writing and this chart is a great example of that. Just when you think that the soli chorus at D is as good as his saxophone writing can get, he modulates and tops it with the brilliant new section at I. This is a transitional piece between the pre-swing of the 1920s and the mid-1930s swing.SKU: AL30564 -

Take the “A” Train
Frank Foster, leader and arranger for the Count Basie band, penned this version of the classic big band tune. Recreate that great Basie sound with your own ensemble, using the same chart they use. Wonderful sounds and great teaching material, too. (4:21)

The Beat Goes On
Yep, it’s the tune by Sonny Bono, from Sonny and Cher fame! With a driving shuffle feel, this contemporary and hip treatment of this classic pop-rock tune let’s you know you are in for a treat from the first note. This is a powerful and fun-to-play chart with solo space provided for tenor, trumpet 2, and guitar if desired. The lead trumpet range is to written high D.SKU: AL38699 -

The Cannonball Run
A high energy Latin pop groove, this one moves along at a pretty good clip—around 240 BPM. It features a soprano sax lead instead of alto 1 and solo space for all saxes, trumpet 4, and trombones 1 and 2. The lead trumpet range is to written high F. A hot sax section soli and some counterpoint round out this cannonball. Hot stuff! (6:28)SKU: AL43704 -

The Windmills of Your Mind
The beautiful tune, “Windmills of Your Mind” has been treated as a jazz waltz by Eric Richards at around 155 BPM. The initial melody is stated by tenor and trumpet, then is followed by a hot sax section soli, with written solos for tenor and trumpet. All this and more in this brilliant chart.

There Is No Greater Love
An excellent swing chart for a strong band. At 184 BPM, the chart opens with a small group contrafact and includes some solo space for alto, trombone, and piano, followed by a kickin’ sax soli and a shout. Lead trumpet range is to written high D. A quality chart top to bottom. (4:52)SKU: AL41141 -

Too Close for Comfort
A Gordon Goodwin vocal chart! In addition to the vocal part, there are solo lead sheets for alto sax, tenor sax, trumpet and trombone. Gordon has conceived this chart with the vocal intertwined into the fabric of the chart. Vocal keys are F, G and A-flat with modulations. Vocal range is low E below middle C to E-flat fourth space. As recorded on The Phat Pack CD. Outstanding!SKU: AL26890 -

Whodunnit?
Another Gordon Goodwin work of art. Commissioned by New Trier High School, Jim Warrick, director, this is sort of a bluesy-swing chart with a huge shout chorus. Optional vibe/xylophone/percussion part and an optional flute part on 2nd alto part. Demands a strong sax section and has a powerful shout chorus. As performed by Gordon Goodwin’s Big Phat Band. Wonderful chart! (excerpt 2:06)SKU: ALJEM05026
