Here is our take on the Foster classic, taken from Basie's 1981 Carnegie Hall concert, with Sonny Cohn on Trumpet. We have written out the first half of Cohn's solo and left your player to improvise t...

Whilst the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra is most often remembered forh TD's lush trombone sound, the band also produced some extraordinarily powerful swing numbers, and not many were better than this one. Wr...

Red Bank Boogie is a classic Basie piano feature, and we have written out the Piano part in full. This chart evolved over time, as many of CB's charts did. The original was possibly a little stilted,...

This is Artie Shaw's 1939 version of At Sundown, from the time when his first band was arguably its the height. Apart from the Clarinet solo, the chart is not too hard, and swings freely with good sol...

A fabulous chart from the Goodman band of the early 1940's, written by Eddie Sauter, and, quite naturally, a Clarinet feature. The chart is harmonically very innovative, and shows glimpses of the sort...
