Greg Johnson has come up with a wonderful reworking of Coltrane's Giant Steps, turning his arrangement into a fresh take on the iconic tune that changed Jazz music in a big way.
-Bob Mintzer
Inspired by a trip to Tokyo, this big band arrangement features all of the horns and drum set. No piano, bass or guitar. I've found it to be a nice middle of the set piece. Lead trumpet part goes up to a high E.
This is my best emulation of a Benny Carter-style ballad. Very challenging trombone soloist part and tricky bridge for the saxophones.
Sometimes you just have to throw the bones.. a bone. This trombone feature is for 4 trombones and rhythm section. Easy to play technically, it is challenging to capture the character of the piece!
My best emulation of early Thad Jones. This piece is a conrafact of "Can't We Be Friends". I also gave myself a solo and used it as an opportunity to go OLD school!
This slightly reharmonized Blues gives your soloists the opportunity to shine! Easy ensemble parts with a dynamic shout chorus.
