JE: Waltz for Another Debbie Les Hooper

This is a lovely, straight-eighth waltz that starts simply and quietly with the rhythm section. There are flute doubles in the alto saxophone parts and a flugelhorn solo. Brass ranges are very limited. This is a great piece to program to contrast the more demanding charts you are performing. 5-4-4-4

JE: Where's Teddy (Edited) Willie Maiden / Arr. Bob Curnow

This "edited" version of "Where's Teddy" (as played and recorded by Maynard Ferguson's Birdland Dream Band) is much more playable for the trumpet section as a whole than the original "pro" version (which is also available). However, everything else is the same and it does not sacrifice any of the original chart's style and charm. It is a medium-swing minor blues tune with solo ...

This great piece could easily be a theme song for the next "cops and robbers" TV show! A wonderful, contemporary fusion piece in 3/4, Patty Darling's composition focuses a fair amount on the piano.
