Told Ya So
A medium-swing modal original by Gordon Goodwin. The tempo is around 140 BPM, the flexible solo section has written solos provided for (opt) flute, alto 1, tenor 1, bari, trumpet 3 and trombone 1. The lead trumpet range is to written B above the staff. It’s relaxed and kinda laid-back but still has the Goodwin intensity. A fun to play Goodwin chart.SKU: AL40362 -

Two Degrees East, Three Degrees West
Made famous by the Modern Jazz Quartet, this medium swinger is a great addition to the literature for young jazz players. Mark’s chart opens with a small group of 2 saxes, trumpet, trombone and guitar, but the full ensemble quickly gets in the game. The blues format makes it easy for anyone to solo, and there’s a nice full ensemble “send off” at the beginning of the solo section. This is a great example of quality writing for young players.SKU: HL7011907 -
