All The Things You Are - arr. Gerry Mulligan Alone Together - arr. Bob Curnow Back In Time - Pat Metheny / arr. Bob Curnow
 One of those mystery charts that hardly anyone knows about, this chart is a beauty. Bob Curnow has arranged this haunting melody with lots of interesting counterpoint and harmonies throughout.  Pat Metheny is known for his beautiful melodies, and "Back In Time" is no exception.

 Oliver Nelson wrote the most beautiful melodies! This is a clarinet feature (how about that?), and was recorded by Phil Woods and the Oliver Nelson's Jazz Interactions Orchestra (hear it on the Verve Jazz Masters 48 CD).  Here is a chance to dazzle your audiences and  show off the Trumpet Section, without a lot of hassle.  This is another of the many wonderful charts arranged by Lennie Niehaus for the Stan Kenton Orchestra.
I'm Glad There Is You - arr. Stan Kenton I've Never Been In Love Before - arr. Lennie Niehaus If I Could (Pro) - Pat Metheny / arr. Curnow
 This is a rich, warm chart as arranged by Stan.  A lovely Broadway tune as scored for Kenton's dance book.  Pat plays this at just about every concert of the Group.

Recorded in 1947 and included in the Milestones LP, this piece is a gorgeous melody (one of Pete's best known).  A ballad for Solo Trumpet, this is an ideal selection for your festival requirements.  As arranged for and performed by the Stan Kenton Orchestra, this is a wonderful setting that features the saxophone section and solos for trumpet and trombone.

 Metheny's ballads are beautiful and haunting.  This chart was originally written for Charlie Parker to perform with the Stan Kenton Orchestra.  As commissioned (and recorded) by the SWR Big Band of Stuttgart, Germany, this is a lovely, easy-flowing piece that moves from a ballad (lullaby) to a waltz (featuring trombone and alto saxophone) and back again to the ballad.

 Fred wrote this version first, before creating the shorter, easier version. This arrangement is a full band version based on Willie Maiden's superb arrangement for Maynard's smaller band (4 saxes, 4 tpts., 2 trbs.). It does not require the extreme high trumpet playing of the pro version.   5-4-4-3  This absolutely beautiful arrangement by Willie Maiden features a trombone and tenor sax solo, along with the primary solo by (guess who) the trumpet player a la Maynard.

 Oliver Nelson wrote the most beautiful melodies!! This is an alto saxophone feature and was recorded by Phil Woods and the Jazz Interactions Orchestra in 1967 (hear it on the Verve Jazz Masters 48 CD).    "(A) Relative Calm" is a beautiful ballad that features trumpet throughout.

Patty Darling brings us yet another great contemporary chart, incorporating multiple solo opportunities. Have fun and enjoy the drive! 5-4-4-4

Warm Valley - arr. Don Sebesky When We're Together - Les Hooper You Love But Once - Oliver Nelson
 Don Sebesky has taken Ellington's melody and created a warm, sensuous chart which will be played for years to come.  As recorded on the Les Hooper Big Band's Anything Goes, this is a lovely, contemporary, rock ballad, which features alto saxophone throughout.  There may not be a more beautiful ballad anywhere in jazz ensemble literature.
