My arrangements
This is the page for getting digital copies in the form of pdf’s of some of my big band charts. The costs are listed below.
The charts are written for 5 saxes, 4 trumpets, 4 trombones, guitar, piano, bass and drums. They include a full score and a vocal part if they’re a vocal chart. Most are also available written for 3 saxes (alto, tenor, baritone), 2 trumpets, 1 trombone, piano, bass and drums. Again, they include the full score and vocal parts if they’re a vocal chart.
Cost is $20.00 for the 5444 version and $12.00 for the 3213 version. I can supply a guitar part for the small band version at no cost, just ask.
