Frank Rosolino's jazz waltz is loved by all, and Holman's arrangement of it is superb.

This is a very fresh sounding, interesting and fun piece .
|
Bob Curnow has taken fragments of a piece written during his grad school days and developed a very attractive and unique chart, featuring solos for tenor saxophone, trumpet, and drums. Very dramatic shout choruses and the solos are surrounded by a quiet beginning and ending. 5 4-4-4

Another amazingly futuristic piece from Rugolo's great mind.

Here is a most unusual chart, set in a celtic style, with shades of bag pipes and Scottish overtones.
|
This is a delightful piece that would provide some energy and variety to any concert program!

Composed by Don Goodwin, Jr. for the Spokane Jazz Orchestra in honor of Bob Curnow, this very unique, interesting, and exciting piece is a thrill to play and hear. Don set some wonderful melodic thoughts in a medium tempo 5/4 meter that practically plays itself. 5-4-4-4
