(8 Brass) In 4/4 despite the title, this is a hard-swinging, bluesy, audience-pleasing chart, similar in vibe to some of the music of the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra. It features tenor all the way through (the łTą is Stanley Turrentine), playing over an infectious blues groove. The ensemble interjects brief melodic statements and adds backgrounds that build to a great climax. An accessible chart for high school players, but very satisfying for college and pro bands as well. Written for the Colorado Jazz Orchestra.

Tale Of The Open Road (9 Brass) A sophisticated contemporary piece with creative architecture and orchestral colors, reminiscent of the Pat Metheny Group. A haunting chant-like melody played by solo piano and then joined by tenor continues to develop over a straight 3/4 (or 6/8) groove. This leads to a tenor solo beginning over a bass vamp that moves into the changes of the tune. A piano solo continues from the tenor solo and leads to a development section with a memorable melody. Commissioned by Gene Aitken for the 2008 UNC/Greeley Jazz Festival All-Stars, and recorded by UNC Jazz Lab Band I on their upcoming CD.

...And Especially - (Level IV) Written for the great drummer Ronnie Bedford, this is a high-energy but medium-tempo hard bop swing chart, playable by advanced high school groups and well suited for colleges and pro bands.

After the solos, there is a grooving shout chorus that builds to an exciting finish.

chorale coda

(Level IV) What Child Is This – A perennial Christmas favorite set to the tune of a traditional English
folk song
Greensleeves is now a spirited jazz waltz. The news
of a new child travels through a winter's night with cold wind swirling in the
air. Tension builds as the voices weave the question "Why lies He in such
mean estate?" but eventually culminates in a joyous exclamation to welcome
the savior. Written for Vox One.

(Level IV) The Wexford Carol – One of the oldest Christmas carols from County
Wexford in Ireland, it features a soprano solo throughout. Opens with a bed of
chords to light up the darkness and welcome the pure voice that announces the
savior's arrival. In the second and third verses there is some reharmonization
to savor as it builds to the shepherds' encounter with the "Lord of
Light." A quiet afterthought closes the tune. Written for Vox

(Level IV) Annie Laurie – Paying homage to the beautiful Annie Laurie
and Scotland, this arrangement evokes a bucolic landscape while featuring the
baritone, soprano and tenor solos. Somewhat similar to Danny Boy, the
arrangement starts off with the background lines weaving a little brook. In the
second verse, different parts have some counter-lines that are their
"solo" moments to be brought out. The song builds to its climax at
measures 60 - 62, followed by a reflective moment of silence and the ending
reminiscent of the intro. Written for Vox One.

(8 Brass) This piece was the winner of the 2007 BMI Foundation Charlie Parker Composition Prize. It has been built on three themes that are announced in the introduction and manipulated throughout the composition. The arch form (intro, A, B, C, piano solo, C, B, A, coda) and tonal arrangement (centricity around D) have been inspired by the string quartets of Bela Bartok. This piece moves through Even 8th, Fast Swing and Latin time feels as well.

(Level IV) In These Rooms is a lightly swinging moderate jazz waltz in the style of John Abercrombie or Pat Metheny and very relaxed and thoughtful in the vibe of the piece. The introduction and solo section use densely scored simple melodic statements alternating with solo space for the lead guitarist. The changes utilize shifting modes and suspended chords, with no ii-V-I. Rhythms, except for occasional use of the ‘quartuplet’, are very simple. (five electric guitars, bass, and drums)

(Level IV) Jazz Nonet. Just Missed You uses the Latin ‘tombao’ rhythm. In keeping with the Cuban style, additional percussionists could be easily added. The melody is shared by alto and trumpet. The first phrase of the melody is seven bars, and this unevenness gives it a sense of ‘leaning forward’, especially in the tenor solo section. Cadences are built around a iv-V-bII formula. Articulations should always favor the offbeats, and the horns sound better if they ‘lay back’. The piano solo before the DS may be opened up. (trumpet, trombone; baritone, tenor, and alto saxes; guitar, piano, bass, drums) View all charts by Kevin Brunkhorst
|
(Level IV) Jazz Nonet. More Issues is a 16th-note funk of the driving kind, not the swinging kind. It’s a lot of fun for the rhythm section. Tenor saxophone is the featured soloist. The melody is in tenor and guitar; the guitarist can use a slightly overdriven rock sound if he/she blends with the ensemble. A series of rhythm breaks leads to the full solo. Backgrounds are in long tones and closely scored. The soloist must understand modes of the melodic minor scale. Trumpet range is only high in the closing phrases of the melody. (trumpet, trombone; baritone, tenor, and alto saxes; guitar, piano, bass, drums)

(Level IV) Jazz Nonet. Only features the trombone. It opens with a rubato theme statement; the band enters gradually around the 31-bar melody. The trombone solo threads its way around band figures; rhythmic and harmonic tension builds, then declines rapidly, leading to an open solo cadenza. There is a brief recapitulation. Harmony and key centers are advanced; the soloist must understand altered dominants and diminished-major 7th sounds. Range is not difficult. The emphasis is on blend and nuance.(flugelhorn, trombone; baritone, tenor, and alto saxes; guitar, piano, bass, drums) View all charts by Kevin Brunkhorst

(Leve IV) Excerpt from ‘The Way Up’, Part One is a guitar ensemble reading of the first theme (approximately the first six minutes) of Part One of The Pat Metheny Group’s 2005 epic ‘The Way Up’. The lead guitar part takes on much of Pat’s role as melodic player and soloist, though guitars 2 and 3 sometimes play Pat’s overdubbed melodic parts. There is a fairly long solo section with interesting modal changes, and everyone has strong roles in supporting and building around the soloist. Be careful not to let the ensemble build too quickly around the soloist! This chart is good for students of the Metheny/Mays sound, and a favorite with audiences. (five electric guitars, electric bass, and drums)
