Your rhythm section will shine in this new Funk chart. There is a fun breakdown section after the solos where the sections of the band are layered in a clever way to create a giant build to the shout chorus. Get down and get funky!

David Samuel has created a jewel with this new jazz arrangment of Dvorak's theme Going Home. Beautiful harmony accompanies the lyrical melody as the texture melts from transparent to full and lush.

Commissioned by JEN (the Jazz Education Network) Kris has done a fantastic job of capturing the feel and flavor of the 2nd-line groove. While the feel is traditional New Orleans, the harmony and melodic structure are fresh and contemporary.

Kris Berg uses his unique harmonic approach to the fullest in this new Bossa Nova. Each new phrase has some twists and turns that help make this a very interesting chart. Nothing "outside" but fresh and modern sounding.

You can't go wrong with George Gershwin! This new take on the standard tune is filled with dynamic contrasts and engaging harmony. Wonderful interweaving lines work together to showcase this iconic melody.

A bit of a throwback, this swing chart highlights all the great aspects of the bands from the '40s and '50s while still sounding fresh. The wailing Sax lines and punchy brass along with a solid swing groove are sure to make this a crowd pleaser.

Leave it to the creative mind of composer Steve Wiest to come up with a crazy title and chart to match! This is definitely not your grandmother's swing tune. It is a great choice if you are looking for something outside the box that has fun parts for everybody.
