Charting the Course Book 1

A collection of six charts for small jazz groups at grade 2 - 2.5. All charts are scored in three-part writing, with flexible instrumentation provided by all three parts in each wind book. Solo sections are provided with changes, and also a mini-clinic for each tune with a break down of the spelled-out chord progression and suggested scales to use throughout each solo. Twelve transcribed solos match the recordings note-for-note, and twelve suggested solos give younger players a starting point with themes taken from the recorded solos. 49 Play-along tracks provide every instrument a chance to sit in with the recorded band.
