Blues In A Box

Jazz Ensemble Score & Parts

This challenging powerful piece is inspired by vintage instrumental themes. The title comes from one of the composer's favorite lines when greeting people and the piece is truly one of his favorites! Your guitar player will love the chance to use the wah-wah pedal in this tune and he/she also will have the opportunity to rock out on a BIG solo! This is sure to be a hit!

There He Is!

This piece provides your group with an opportunity to "swing" while performing in a contemporary style. "Closed Tonight" switches between swing and funk styles and also features an improvised tenor sax solo. "Closed Tonight" will truly be a big hit at your next show!

Closed Tonight

This arrangement is inspired by Morton Gould's "American Salute" but is also highly original and playable by very young bands. Your young band will become familiar with triplets in this piece and each section of the band is given the melody throughout parts of the piece. This is the perfect way to introduce your young (or maybe "not-so-young"!) students to a timeless classic while sounding much more advanced than people may expect!

Johnny Comes Marching Home

Concert Band Score & Parts

This unique arrangement starts off in a "Sing Sing Sing" swing/jazz style. After a 5/4 interlude the arrangement morphs into a funky section with tenor sax (or other) solo. To end the tune the band experiences a chorale section and a "slow dirty" swing section to finish out the tune strongly! Your group and audience will love this challenging arrangement.

Down By The Riverside

In this challenging intermediate piece your concert band will enjoy playing a brisk Medieval-yet-contemporary-sounding piece while studying the 5/4 time signature. The 8th note pulse is continuously divided in a 3+3+2+2 pattern and is always prominent in the percussion section. "As Was" is sure to be a favorite for your intermediate band.

As Was

Although this piece is somewhat lighthearted it is also very challenging for your group. Each movement portrays the titles of the movements complete with pig snorts and frightened yells! This challenging piece will become a favorite of your group and it will challenge them too!

Man, Bear, and Pig

"Snik-Snak" is a funky little tune that will challenge your band while performing a memorable "Fun" tune! Your drummer will get a chance to shine and your Bari Sax player will get a rare opportunity to jam on a solo! Along with the dramatic contrasts in dynamics "Snik-Snak" is a blast!

Another in-your-face funky rock tune "Kid Vicious" has an infectious groove in a minor key. Driving unison lines and a solo section for 1st trombone make this song especially interesting. The title says it all... your "Kids" will definitely sound "Vicious" when blazing through this incredible tune!

Kid Vicious

Inspired by a song Dan's cousin Greg made up when he was a child this blazing jazz-rock tune would work great as a closer or opener to any set. Your advanced trumpet players have the option to scream and there is a section to feature your skilled improvising trombonist. The driving rhythm section complete with wah-wah guitar hard rock drumming rock organ a double-stop driven bass line. One thing is certain: This tune is INTENSE!!!

Daddy Won't Let Me Ride On His Motorcycle

This funky jazz-rock piece uses the types of riffs you would hear from Bill Chase. It is a great study in syncopation and funk grooves. The bass part is especially interesting giving your star bassist a moment to shine! With a section for open solos and an flute part, this tune will be a favorite for your folks who like to jam.
