Big Band 1920's Dixieland Concert Band Symphony Pit Orchestra Combo About Mike

 

 

BIG BAND

Big Band Transcriptions:  $15 per chart (unless otherwise noted)

Note: The instrumentation varies a little from chart to chart. Usually from 13-17-piece. In the 13-piece charts, usually there is no guitar (although the piano part can be used since the chords are always noted). So, the effective range is from 14 to 17-piece. The instrumentation is noted by three numbers (saxes, trumpets, trombones). For example 532 = 5 saxes, 3 trumpets, 2 trombones, 544 = 5 saxes, 4 trumpets, 4 trombones, etc. Almost all have 5 saxes, there are usually 3 or 4 trumpets, and 2-4 trombones. Since it is normal for trombone parts to double trumpet parts (an octave lower), you can add trombone parts, if needed, by dropping the appropriate trumpet part down an octave. The Rhythm section is almost always piano, bass and drums (sometimes with guitar). Most of the vocals are one chorus and can be easily replaced by a solo (or solos) if you don't have a vocalist. A few are basically "all" vocal (i.e., beginning to end). Those are noted as "vocal feature."
