A quick
reference guide for stage band and dance
band arrangers. It contains notes on
ranges, registers, and characteristics of
instruments most often associated with
stage and dance bands. It includes a
comprehensive section on Latin instrument
rhythm patterns and a basic chord chart.
Musicians new to arranging will find it
to be an invaluable reference.
Experienced arrangers will find
themselves referring to it more often
than they might imagine. |

Harlem
Nocturne |
An
"-O" arrangement. A Concert setting in
which individual parts are fragmented. But the
fragments in each part fit together to form the total
picture of the arrangement. It takes very
careful counting, when initially rehearsed...but it will
come into focus after a couple of read-throughs.
If a Flugelhorn is used for the solo parts, use the
Trumpet 4 and Trombone 1 "A" parts. If
you want the lead in the trombone, use the Trumpet 4
and Trombone 1 "B" parts. Quite
playable for high school and above stage bands. |
| 802-R |
Harlem
Nocturne |
We
have had some great feed-back on this one. If you have
ever heard Spike Jones' straight version of this tune
(well…as close as Spike ever got to doing anything
straight), you will notice that this version follows
that loosely. A little more up-tempo and with some
nice clarinet overtones. Almost a little Dixie style
in some ways but still has that laid back soulful
heart to it. The lead starts with the tenor, and then
goes to the clarinet and trumpet. We can sub an alto
part for the clarinet if needed. Clarinet, Tenor,
Bone, Trumpet, and rhythm. |

I know, I know, it's off to Disney we go. I couldn't help it, I was overcome with visions of the seven height challenged
people (Dwarves is not politically correct and we are
always P.C.). This chart has a very concert band straight 16 bar intro followed with a lot of
up-tempo swing style, and maybe a little Dixie style fun. The last chorus uses either a bari or bone with the lead and the trumpet and clarinet playing a counter-melody with harmonies. For clarinet, bari or bone, trumpet, and rhythm. In Bb. |

In the first 2 sections of this rag, Scott Joplin uses themes from Louis Chauvin, and then develops in the later sections. (The score gives you more historical notes about the original piece.) This is the

The tune is basically a Christian praise song. In C. Instrumentation is
trumpet, bone, tenor sax, lead and rhythm guitars, elec. keyboard, bass, drums, male lead vocal
with male and female backup vocal. The chart can be tailored for more horns --- another
trumpet, couple more saxes, etc. --- but there will be an extra charge for that. (Don't
worry...Like everything we do, it will be very reasonable.) |

Rag (1910)
Sax Quartet |
Sax Quartet.
Most of this rag is in A minor with many chromatic chords and unusual intervals, which gives it an "eastern sound," as suggested by the title. In this arrangement the melody rarely stays in the same voice for more than just a few measures before it's passed on to the next player. In the third section, the melody finally stays in one place for a while, and the F major key is enough to lighten up the feel before returning to A minor for the finale! Scored for SATB or AATB.

Hora |
This chart is written for alto, tenor, bari, 2 trumpets, 2 bones (2nd is optional), and rhythm. There are fully orchestrated piano and drum parts if the client wants to use them. It is a medley of traditional songs for dancing the Hora and runs about 4.5 minutes, as follows:
1. Havah Nagilah
2. Siman Tov
3. Tzena
4. Der Shtler Bulgar (After Johnny Mercer wrote lyrics for Martha Tilton with the
Benny Goodman Orchestra, it was more commonly known as
"When the Angels Sing."
This arrangement is based on the Ziggy Elman trumpet solo from the Dorsey recording so it may be a bit of a challenge for the trumpets).

Saxophone Quartet. An original composition from

yourselves and an audience. |

A Louis Prima tune in the Louis Prima Style. A very fascinating arrangement of this classic bluesy piece. The lead is in the alto and trumpet with the tenor playing a subtle but quite interesting counter-melody. For alto, tenor, trumpet, bone (can be dropped), and rhythm. Has an open middle chorus for solos or you could probably make it work as a vocal if your feeling a little like
Keeley Smith. God!...All these old names I am dropping

instruments for each chorus helps to take you through the "When I Was Seventeen", "When I Was Twenty-one", "When I Was Thirty-five", "And Now The Days Are Short"
stages of this song. This is a very nice arrangement. Always goes over well with your audience. |

This is a direct quote from the arranger; "I think it is a decent chart, but I'm all out of inspiration for writing a blurb". Well…You listen to the sample and I know you will agree that his quote is one of the biggest understatements heard in a long time. This is more than decent...This is a great chart! If it has to be Jingle Bells then this is the arrangement
for you with out a doubt. Written for 3 saxes (ATB),
2
trumpets, 2 trombones (2nd optional), rhythm. Starts in Bb and goes to C for the last chorus. Short (8-bar) ad-lib solos for tenor, trumpet, trombone, and piano.

This is one of those arrangements that sometimes come out better than you imagined it would. Great fun for the audience and for the band. The arrangement uses three choruses in which each horn has a solo lead, then ad lib solo, and then the ensemble, and followed by a solo lead out. Very interesting. Of course the solo sections can be farmed out to anyone. For alto, bari (we can make this
a tenor or bone if you like), trumpet and rhythm. In

The style of this Hoagy Carmichael tune loosely follows that of the way Leon Redbone covered this piece. No vocal though. Well it can be a vocal if you use the middle chorus for that. Would work just fine. A little blues, a little swing, a little Dixie, a little of everything going on in this chart that blends together to make a very nice arrangement! In "C". For clarinet, bari or bone, trumpet, and rhythm. We can add a tenor part if you wish. |

Yeah!…It's that Herb Alpert thing, only this one is for a 3 or 4 horn combo. The alto

A lot jazzier version of a the great tune "Mack
The Knife", that has been
overdone in many other venues. But not this
time. It has a wonderful intro followed by a 3
horn chorus with a bridge full of syncopation that
works so well it is hard to believe. It also has
an open middle chorus for solos if you wish. A great
arrangement! |
