Note: Some of these arrangements were intended as vocal backgrounds for a vaudeville show that never materialized. I was hired to write these arrangements loosely based on (but not too close to) the original 1920s recordings. These are referred to (below) as “6-piece combo.” The instrumentation for those charts is: Alto sax/clarinet, trumpet, violin, piano, banjo, and tuba. Others, such as “Buenos Aires” and “Creole Jazz” were for-hire transcriptions and have other instrumentation. Scores are provided with charts written in Finale. The earlier “manuscript” charts do not come with scores.
If a chart is a transcription, it should sound very much like the recording. For many of the arrangements and original compositions of mine, I have mp3 recordings. Please ask me for specific titles and I will send them to you.
I also do custom work (transcriptions, arrangements, film scoring, karaoke tracks, etc.). Please click on ” Custom Transcriptions & Arrangements” (above) or mikehenebry.com (where I sell my original compositions).
When you are ready, please go to “checkout.” Upon checkout, you can either pay with a credit card or use PayPal (or use PayPal to create a PayPal account or pay with a Credit card or a Debit card there). Either way, you will be provided a download link, on the spot, that never expires.
