In a slightly mysterious fashion, this small group chart is a laid-back swing ballad and is an ideal solo feature for trumpet. The solo is completely written and includes an optional improvisation section over the included changes, as well as a satisfying, short cadenza at the ending. Scored for six horn parts plus rhythm section, it features completely flexible instrumentation for almost any combination of instruments. This fine chart is also available in a big band version (Pepper number 10999492). Super for aspiring trumpeters!

Here's an easy-going swing ballad chart that gives trumpet soloists a chance to stand in the spotlight! With strong support from the ensemble, the solo, with a slightly mysterious air, is entirely written and features an optional improvisation section. As an extra added attraction, the solo ends the chart with a brief cadenza showing off the soloist's bravura. This is a great way to add a quieter selection to any concert program. This is also available as a flexible instrumentation small group chart (Pepper number 10999502). Very nice, indeed!

Wow! This beautiful swing ballad features alto sax throughout and includes written parts for the solo sections, fills and a cadenza at the end of the chart, or you can just let the soloist wail. Also included are solo parts for B-flat and C treble clef instruments or C bass clef instrument so that any player can be the featured soloist. The ethereal piano part at the beginning sets the mood for the transition into the soft swing feel. Highly recommended!

Smilin' Back at You

Jazz Lines Publications

Vibraphonist Terry Gibbs is known for his electric, high energy sound with the Gibbs Quartet and the Terry Gibbs Dream Band. Producer Bob Shad had a contract to produce an album with Gibbs. Shad's idea was to feature the vibraphonist with a string section and capitalize on the commercial success that the Charlie Parker with Strings recordings had achieved. Gibbs, never one to copy someone else, convinced Shad that the album should feature himself with five saxophones and a rhythm section with Manny Albam crafting the arrangements. The resulting album, "Vibes on Velvet," was recorded in 1955. Commercial success of this album led to the recording of a follow-up, "More Vibes on Velvet," recorded in 1958. This album featured Gibbs with an all-new ensemble, once again relying on the unique arranging style of Manny Albam. This publication has been prepared from the original parts and includes alternate soloist parts for E-flat, B-flat, and bass clef instruments. In addition, the vibraphone part may be played by any C instrument, making this arrangement playable with any featured soloist.

This was originally recorded by Dizzy Gillespie on his 1957 album The Greatest Trumpet of Them All. Instrumentation: ATB saxes, trumpet, trombone, piano, bass, drums and optional guitar.
