The timeless and beautiful Cootie Williams and Thelonious Monk classic is set here as a flugelhorn feature. The band and soloist get to stretch out some in a double-time interlude before returning to the lyrical ballad style. Great tune, great chart! It's everything you would want it to be. Highly recommended!

Round Midnight

Jazz Ensemble Part

Grade

Hal Leonard Corporation

Feature either trumpet or flugel on this creative arrangement of a timeless standard. Written in ballad style, there's some nice ensemble scoring and a brief, easy section in 3/4. Definitely a top choice for younger bands!

My Funny Valentine

Jazz Ensemble Score & Parts

Alfred Music Publishing

Only rarely does a jazz tune cross over to the pop charts the way this Chuck Mangione classic did back in the seventies! Flugelhorn solo on the 1st trumpet part is featured throughout with the distinctive melody and then with a written or ad lib solo along with a tenor solo. The flugelhorn solo range is up to an optional written high C, but the solo is cued on the 1st tenor part as well. Victor's arrangement brings this contemporary gem within the range of the developing trumpet player without losing any of the hip appeal of the original. Here's a perennially appealing, samba/rock chart that will provide outstanding performance opportunities for your band and soloist! Highly recommended!

Feels So Good

Copyright Year

Editors Choice Year

This Benny Golson ballad has become a standard trumpet or flugelhorn solo feature over the years. This chart is a gorgeous straight-eighth ballad at around 70 bpm that features a flugel soloist while the entire ensemble shines. The flugelhorn solo is entirely written, with some suggested improvisation also included. A brief double-time section lets the ensemble and soloist stretch out for variety. The lead trumpet range is to written G on top of the staff, and optional flute and vibraphone parts come with the set. Highly recommended!

I Remember Clifford

Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart gave the jazz world this beautiful ballad, and arranger Mike Smukal sets it as a lush trumpet or flugelhorn solo feature. The entire solo is notated and can effectively be performed with no improvisation. It also features a wonderful double-time section with everything written out, easy ranges, some nice substitute chords and lush harmonies. This arrangement includes optional parts for flute, horn in F, baritone and tuba. This is an exceptional chart at an accessible level! Highly recommended!

This medium swing trumpet solo feature contains tons of jazz substance! Arranger Dave Rivello captures the distinctive Miles Davis-Harmon Mute sound in this outstanding chart that features both the band and soloist "a la Miles." The trumpet 2 solo part goes to written F on the top line, and the lead trumpet goes to written A. Highly recommended!

Summertime

Feature your trumpet 2 player on this superb ballad arrangement. Opening with a lush rubato section and then shifting into a double-time section, this piece will show off the strengths of your group. This is a fantastic addition to your library!

My Foolish Heart

Do you have two trumpet players to showcase? Here is a ballad everybody knows, scored as a trumpet duet feature. Everything is written, no improvised solos, the lead trumpet range is to C above the staff and the second part is to written A. Lyrical and melodic, this chart is a sure-fire crowd pleaser impeccably arranged by Alan Baylock! Optional expanded instrumentation.

Over the Rainbow

Here is a mysterious, richly scored ballad composed in the Cuban bolero style and featuring a solo flugelhorn. This piece is great to slow things down and show the more expressive side of your ensemble at your next concert!

La Luz en Ti

Jazz Ensemble Score & Parts Flugelhorn Feature

Arranger Mike Lewis presents this moderate swing ballad as a trumpet solo feature that is entirely written for your first trumpet player.  There's also lots of exposure for the sax section with nice and easy soli features.  Easy ranges and rhythms on this treatment of a real standard will allow this tasty chart to come together quickly.  Harry James would be proud!

It Had to Be You

More than just a showcase for your lead trumpet, this monster chart is a powerful statement for the entire ensemble. Opening with the quasi flamenco strains and followed by a melancholy trumpet solo, the first big ensemble hit is guaranteed to move the audience back a few rows! Great writing for all sections and especially the rhythm section.

A Mis Abuelos

Sierra Music Publications

Pat Metheny is known for his beautiful melodies, and Back in Time is no exception. Featuring a flugelhorn or trumpet soloist throughout on a written-out solo with chords included for improvisation, this arrangement is very playable by the ensemble with its moderate ranges. Originally recorded on the reissued Secret Story CD, this arrangement is a great addition to Bob Curnow's continuing reflection on Metheny's music. Beautiful melody, beautiful chart!

Back in Time

Excelcia Music Publishing, LLC

A smooth, floaty groove sets the tone before shifting into a soulful gospel-inspired feel, offering a rich palette of textures for the ensemble. With featured solos for alto sax and trumpet plus optional space for bass or guitar, this chart gives contemporary jazz groups room to stretch musically. A strong pick for high school and college jazz ensembles looking to explore modern styles and improvisation.

True North

This memorable movie theme has been recorded by artists ranging from trumpeter Chris Botti to violinist Joshua Bell. Here is a beautiful setting for young jazz ensembles featuring a flugelhorn soloist in a Latin ballad style. Perfect as a change of pace for any program or festival.

Cinema Paradiso

Kris Berg has composed a beautiful, sensitive and mature solo feature for B-flat, E-flat instruments or trombone. The ensemble is equally important in this setting at around 74 bpm that transitions from the ballad style to a double-time section with the soloist and then back to the ballad style. While the solo part is written, there are ample opportunities for improvisation. The lead trumpet range is to written high C. This is an outstanding chart and ideal vehicle for your advanced soloist.

Lifelong Friends

Hirsch Music

You can't help but smile when you play and hear Tonight, We Tango. At around 112 bpm, this tongue-in-cheek chart is tons of fun and has a melody that just won't go away, plus the groove is one that people will insist on dancing to. It was arranged to feature Grammy-nominated accordionist Alex Meixner, but in the event you don't have an accordionist in the band (really?), you can feature any of your sauciest players on the optional B-flat, E-flat and Bass Clef solo parts. The solo parts are a combination of written passages and improvised choruses that will demonstrate the versatility of your ensemble. Nice!

Tonight, We Tango

A Gordon Goodwin vocal chart! In addition to the vocal part, there are optional solo feature parts for alto sax, tenor sax, trumpet or trombone for added flexibility. Gordon has conceived this with the solo intertwined into the fabric of the chart. The vocal keys are F, G, and A-flat with modulations, and the vocal range is low E below middle C to E-flat fourth space. As recorded on The Phat Pack CD. An outstanding feature for your singer or any horn player!

Too Close for Comfort

HXmusic LLC

This straight-eighth chart in 3/4 is an accessible trumpet or flugelhorn solo feature with an outstanding jazz ensemble background. In a beautifully quiet ballad style, your developing soloist will shine as the melodic material unwinds and is supported by the ensemble. A transcription of the recorded improvised solo section is provided. A jazz waltz swing section offsets the ballad style for contrast before returning to the opening style. The top trumpet note is G. Highly recommended!

Picasso

One of the most iconic holiday tunes of all time is treated here in a masterfully constructed setting featuring a flugelhorn soloist. In a traditional ballad style, this arrangement features tasteful accompaniment figures, creative harmonies, and brief interludes of double-time swing in the solo section.

The Christmas Song

Jalen Publishing

This epic Latin/rock tune by Chuck Mangione is the perfect break from swing charts in concert or contest performances. After the opening statement, this chart features a written trumpet or flugelhorn solo on the original melody followed by a written or improvised trumpet solo. There's also room for the drums to get their fills in between some big ensemble hits before another solo section featuring written or improvised alto or trumpet solos. This chart builds to a fiery close that is sure to get everyone on their feet!
