Here is another very straight-ahead Latin (Cha Cha) version of Baubles, Bangles & Beads, as played by Tito Puente and his Orchestra. It is an ensemble chart from start to end, and very dancable. The a...

Por Una Cabeza is the famous Argentinian Tango from the film 'Scent of a Woman'. Our arrangement is very easy to play, with low brass ranges, yet makes for great Tango. The 'verse' is played by Flute,...

Our chart of Desafinado is written as a smooth bossa, featuring your two tenor saxes. The sax solo lines are written out, so no improvisation is needed. The brass have limited ranges, with trumpets on...

'Wheels' is a neat little Cha-Cha dating from the early 1960's. Joe Loss and his Orchestra had minor chart success with their version of it. Our chart, whilst not a transcription, retains much of the...

Made famous by Clyde McCoy, this gently swinging 2-beat chart features Trumpet 2. We have included all of the plunger articulations and 'wah-wah' indications, so that your player can give an authentic...

This arrangement of Don't Fence Me In is the version recorded by Bing Crosby with the Andrews Sisters in 1944. We have faithfully reproduced this chart, even down to the level of correctly detailing t...

Another swinging tune from the writing partnership of Sammy Cahn & Jule Styne. This version was originally arranged by Marty Paich and recorded by Ella Fitzgerald on her Whisper Not album. Our version...

This arrangement is based on a 1960's Basie instrumental version, in the Neal Hefti style. It is a laid-back, relaxed swinger, mostly in ensemble but with nice counterpoint passages of unison Altos an...

Rock-a-Bye Basie is a lovely little riff chart from the earlier days of the Basie band, written by Basie and Lester Young. We have written out the first (Alto) sax solo, though this can be improvised...

Perdido was one of Duke Ellington's early big hits. Many arrangements have been made of this chart over the years - lots of them at a flat out tempo. The Duke's version is a very laid-back swinger tha...

Here is our transcription of Ray Anthony's version of Harry Warren and Mack Gordon's well known standard, The More I See You, as played on his 1994 Dream Dancing II album. The only change we have made...

Here is our transcription of Ray Anthony's version of the jazz classic, Body and Soul, as played on his 1994 Dream Dancing II album. The only change we have made from the original is to reduce the bra...

In 1994, just four short decades after recording his 'Dream Dancing' album, Ray Anthony took his band back into the studio to record Dream Dancing II. This transcription of Again is from that album. T...

Here is our transcription of the Joe Loss version of 'Moonlight and Roses'. The chart is scored as a two-beat quickstep that swiitches to four beat and back again. Saxes are mostly Miller-voiced, with...

Here is our transcription of Ray Anthony's version of Charles Warfield's well known jazz standard as played on his 1994 Dream Dancing II album. This arrangement is somewhat unusual, in that this song...

The Trombone section in most big bands rarely gets a chance to show off their collective talent, so we have scored Ella Fitzgerald's version of this fine Cole Porter tune for just Vocal, Trombones and...

Transcribed from Julie London's 1961 Liberty Records album 'Whatever Julie Wants', this is a nice, laid back swing chart and is classic Julie London. Whilst it is a vocal feature, the 16 measure instr...

This arrangement of Anything goes is scored as a female vocal, very much in the style of Ella Fitzgerald. The intro features the rarely heard verse before moving into swing tempo at a medium 120 beats...

Whilst this song is usually associated with Peggy Lee and the Benny Goodman band (also available in our catalogue - LLM2081), this Julie London version is a refreshing alternative. It suits a singer w...

This great railway tune was originally written for the 1948 film 'The Harvey Girls'. The version that we offer here was recorded by Rosemary Clooney with the Harry James Orchestra in 1952 and, aside f...

Recorded by Doris Day with the Lou Bring Orchestra in 1947, this chart is a really laid-back, bluesy swing ballad. The band supports the vocalist beautifully, and the underlying harmonies are rich and...

This tune was recorded by Ella for her Harold Arlen songbook album, with the original arrangement scored by Billy May. We have adapted the chart to a full 5444 line-up (from the original 5114) though...

Here is the classic Vaughan Monroe version of this chart, written during the darker days of WWII and sung as a beacon of hope for better times ahead. This is a straight ahead chart with no particularl...
