Deep Texas Blues. (The Early Blues of Lightnin' Hopkins). By Ernie Hawkins. For Guitar (Electric). Licks and Phrases. Grossman-Gtr Workshop. Blues. Beginning. DVD. Duration 186 minutes. Published by Grossman's Guitar Workshop (MB.GW828SDVD).
In this second DVD lesson devoted to the guitar playing of Lightnini Hopkins, Ernie Hawkins dives into Lightnin's early catalogue from the Aladdin and Gold Star record labels. There was an amazing variety to Lightnin's early work. Listening to his early recordings we hear an artist at his prime. He effortlessly employing widely different rhythms, keys and tunings. The deeper we listen to these songs, the deeper our insight into what a master of Texas blues Lightnin' Hopkins really was. Lightnin's style itself came along at the perfect time: the advent of the electric guitar. His style, strong rhythms punctuated by his flowing but compact lead lines created a stinging and heart-tearing evocative sound. Lightnin's guitar style and technique worked great for both the acoustic or electrical guitars. The blues of Freddy King, Albert Collins, the Vaughn brothers, Billy Gibbons, testify to the power of this style. Lightnin' connects the generations of players, starting with Blind Lemon Jefferson, for whom he was lead-boy in the early 1920s. Standing tall at the center of the Texas Blues story is Lightnini Hopkins. In this double DVD set, Ernie Hawkins covers songs in unusual keys such as: drop D(Sugar Mama), in drop D but played in the key of A (Santa Fe Blues), in G (Bad Luck and Trouble), as well as in the usual blues in A, Come Back Baby and the country gospel Needed Time in the key of E. As a bonus, Ernie teaches his version of Lightnin's Hideway, the Freddy King tune coming back home to Lightnin'. Ernie teaches phrase by phrase and then uses the split-screen so you can carefully study what each hand is doing. Detailed tab/music booklets are included as PDF files on both DVDs. 186 minutes * Level 2/3 i Detailed tab/music PDF files on the DVDs.

The Music of Louis Armstrong. (Arranged for Fingerstyle Guitar). By Ernie Hawkins. For Guitar (Fingerpicking). Technic. Grossman-Gtr Workshop. Jazz. Intermediate-Advanced. DVD. Duration 163 minutes. Published by Grossman's Guitar Workshop (MB.GW1000DVD).
This DVD lesson could be titled The Music of Louis Armstrong for Finger-picking Guitar or Gary Davis Meets Louis Armstrong. Born in 1896, the brilliant Piedmont guitarist Gary Davis came of age in the teens and the twenties. He was in his prime during the Jazz Age and his playing shows it. His guitar style and techniques came out of the twenties. It enabled him to play like a band. His thumb playing the rhytmic sections of the band while his index finger soloed over this. Rev. Davis only used his thumb and index fingers to pick. When asked why he replied with a smile: "That's all I need!" In Rev. Davis's playing you can hear the drive of Louis Armstrong as well as Louis's bugle call riffs. Rev. Gary Davis's style is made to order to play Louis Armstong tunes on guitar. As I learned most of what I know and do on the guitar from Rev. Gary Davis, this is how I see it and how I have approached arranging the tunes on this DVD lesson. Once you find the right key on the guitar these early jazz masterpieces seem to fall right into place. Putting CornetChop Suey into the key of C, for instance, enables you to play the patented 'Gary Davis Slow Drag G form C run' throughout as the statement of the initial melody. This lesson is over 2 hours and forty minutes. The arrangements are for the intermediate to advance players. They are multi-section compositions with lots of fingerpicking challenges. But all your hard work will be very worthwhile as these tunes are some of the greatest in the early jazz repertoire. Ernie teaches phrase by phrase and then uses the split-screen so you can carefully study what each hand is doing. Detailed tab/music booklets are included as PDF files on both DVDs. Tunes include: Potato Head Blues, Basin Street Blues, Cornet Chop Suey, Weather Bird and It's A Wonderful World.

A Minor Case of the Birthday Blues by Lauren Bernofsky (1967-). For string orchestra. FJH String Orchestra. Full set (score and parts). Score only also available: ST6251S. Grade 3.5. Score and parts. Duration 3:15. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc (FJ.ST6251).
Even the most humbug-y of audience members will have to laugh at this new take on the traditional birthday song. After the melody is presented in a minor key, it works its way through a series of tongue-in-cheek "serious" transitions before arriving at a zany calypso setting (complete with maracas and claves!). Through all its silliness, the piece is actually a great teaching tool for many techniques your students will encounter in symphonic music, such as imitation, chromatics, tremolo, triplets, and more. Don't forget the cake!

Whistle Blues by Benny Goodman. Edited by Jeffrey Sultanof. Arranged by Mary Lou Williams. For big band (5/3/3/4). Swing. Medium. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-8889).
Williams wrote Camel Hop and Roll 'Em for Benny Goodman while she was still with Andy Kirk’s band, and in late 1946, Williams started writing for him again. At the time, he had his own radio show with pianist Victor Borge, and in 1947, he would begin a new recording contract with Capitol Records. Goodman recorded Williams's Lonely Moments and Whistle Blues, a novelty that was recorded a few times during 1946 and 1947. Although the original parts exist for the Goodman version of Whistle Blues, we have decided to issue the stock arrangement of this piece instead. It is very similar to the recording made by Milt Orent’s orchestra for Moe Asch’s Disc label (Asch would later create the legendary Folkways label), and is a more interesting treatment of the material. The original publication has a bit of history. In 1947, Goodman’s publishing company Harman Music issued both Lonely Moments and Whistle Blues as octavo-sized stock arrangements with Goodman’s image on the cover. The copyright notices on both are credited to Harman, but this was an error. It is believed that Goodman thought that he was buying the copyrights themselves and released the stocks with that understanding, but Williams refused to sell them to him. Both publications were promptly withdrawn. I was fortunate to obtain copies of both from Gene Goodman, who ran Goodman’s publishing company (the actual owner of the company was Harry Goodman, who'd played bass for Benny during the thirties).

Skyliner by Charlie Barnet. Edited by Jeffrey Sultanof. Arranged by Billy Moore, Jr.. For big band (6/4/4/4). Swing. Medium-difficult. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-8284).
Here is the definitive arrangement of Skyliner from the original published parts. This is not a transcription. This arrangement, written by Billy Moore, Jr. and recorded in 1944 by Charlie Barnet, features a tenor saxophone soloist that doubles on soprano (this was Barnet's part). In addition to that tenor/soprano part, there is a standard reed section of 2 altos, 2 tenors, and a baritone. The arrangement featured a written introductory piano solo. We have retained this solo but have included chord changes in the event that your pianist wishes to improvise. The soprano sax part can certainly be played on the clarinet.

Jump Caprice by Mary Lou Williams. Edited by Jeffrey Sultanof. Arranged by Mary Lou Williams. For big band (Clarinet Soloist, 2 Alto Saxophones, 2 Tenor Saxophones, Baritone Saxophone, 4 Trumpets, 3 Trombones, Guitar, Piano, Bass, Drums). Written for Benny Goodman. Swing, Jazz. Difficult. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-8820).
Williams wrote Camel Hop and Roll 'Em for Benny Goodman while she was still with Andy Kirk's band, and in late 1946, Williams started writing for him again. At the time, he had his own radio show with pianist Victor Borge, and in 1947, he would begin a new recording contract with Capitol Records. Goodman recorded Williams's Lonely Moments and Whistle Blues . She also wrote this arrangement of Jump Caprice ; however, it was not played. It is probable that this piece was a bit too hip for him, although by 1948, Mary Lou would write several boppish arrangements for a Goodman small group with Benny and Stan Hasselgard (the group also included tenor saxophonist Wardell Gray). This is a straight forward blues with lots of altered harmonies typical of the bop style of the forties. It can be opened up for solos.

Alternate soloist parts have been included so that this may be played with any featured instrumentalist.

Air Mail Special by Benny Goodman. Edited by Jeffrey Sultanof. Arranged by Jimmy Mundy. For big band. Swing. Medium-difficult. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-8206).
In 1941, Benny Goodman led the second of his great ensembles. Only Teddy Wilson, Irving Goodman, and arranger Jimmy Mundy remained from the 1935-39 band that jump-started the swing era of popular music. This band still played the music of Fletcher Henderson, but Eddie Sauter was contributing a great deal to its musical personality. This band would also highlight the early work of pianist/arranger Mel Powell. Air Mail Special was originally titled Good Enough To Keep, which was recording session-speak for "This may not be the performance that we want to release to the public, but let's hold on to it just in case." Many of these alternate performances were eventually released to the public, in many cases to the consternation of the musicians themselves, who didn’t enjoy some of their lesser efforts being heard. Of course, some alternate performances are better than the ones that were released, only held back because of a single mistake. It was Mundy who arranged this for the Goodman band, and he is even cut in on composer credit, a generous gesture on Benny’s part, who also took a piece for himself. As we know, the tune was the sole creation of guitarist Charlie Christian, who wrote a number of pieces that Goodman played mostly in small-group settings. Mundy also arranged this for Count Basie and Harry James, and played it when he led his own big band in 1946. Please note that this is the complete arrangement from the original parts in the Benny Goodman library. Some sections were cut by Goodman, but restored here. Mundy makes interesting use of stop-time in this arrangement, and these sections should get extra attention so that the band sounds like one person. This arrangement, like all of Goodman’s arrangements, was meant to be danced to, so it really should not be played too fast.

Yearnin' (Individual Arrangement from The Blues And The Abstract Truth). Edited by Rob Duboff and Jeffrey Sultanof. Arranged by Oliver Nelson. For jazz combo (alto sax, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet, piano, bass, and drums). Swing. Medium. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-8855).
This is one title out of 6 arrangements from the Oliver Nelson 1961 album The Blues and the Abstract Truth. In February of 1961, the sessions that later constituted the album Blues and the Abstract Truth were recorded for a new jazz label distributed by ABC-Paramount, Impulse Records. The sessions were produced by Creed Taylor, who would go on to produce classic recordings on the Verve label, and his own CTI label. Oliver Nelson had a career full of highlights by 1961. Originally from St Louis, Missouri, he had played in the bands of Louis Jordan, Louis Bellson, Erskine Hawkins, Wild Bill Davis and Quincy Jones. He had also been a house arranger at the legendary Apollo Theatre in Harlem in New York City. Nelson had made some albums under his own name as well. But it was this album that became his first masterpiece. An all-star ensemble was assembled: with Nelson were Freddie Hubbard, Eric Dolphy, George Barrow, Bill Evans, Paul Chambers, and Roy Haynes. One of the compositions on the album became a standard: Stolen Moments. The album received ecstatic reviews from the jazz press and has rarely been out of print since it’s original release. Nelson went from success to success, making big band and small group albums in a variety of settings under his own name and accompanying jazz and pop artists. He composed symphonic music as well, and toured extensively even after he moved to Los Angeles in 1967 and became established in the film and television world. He also gave workshops and seminars. He was only 43 when he died in 1975. Thanks to an agreement with Oliver Nelson, Jr, this item is now available, edited using Nelson’s original manuscripts. Nelson now joins the legendary names whose music is now available from Jazz Lines Publications. This item is arranged for alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, trumpet, piano, bass, and drums.

I Thought About You by Jimmy Van Heusen & Johnny Mercer. Arranged by Vern Sielert. For jazz ensemble (5-4-4-4). Jazz Masters series. Swing. Grade 4. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-1113).
This chart comes right out of the tradition of Sammy Nestico/Count Basie. It is a marvelous arrangement of a great standard from the American Songbook. Vern Sielert sets this in a medium-swing tempo/feel and starts off with a quiet ensemble statement that leads into the solo section. The solo can be played with the player of your choice. The ensemble enters again with a super-soft chorus that ranks with the best charts out there. A nifty contrapuntal section leads into a strong, swinging ensemble section that roars out to the ending. What a sensational arrangement! 5-4-4-4.

The Daily Dance by Bill Holman. Arranged by Bill Holman. For jazz ensemble (5-5-5-3). Stan Kenton series. Fast Swing. Grade 5-6. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-1095).
"The Daily Dance" was recorded by the Stan Kenton Orchestra on the CD "Birthday in Britain." The piece is a very fast-swing that features solos for alto saxophone, trumpet, piano (written) and drums. This is one of the many Bill Holman masterpieces he created for the Kenton Band. It does require a mature band and a good amount of rehearsal. All the work put in will be well rewarded with performance of this terrific piece. Well done, Willis! 5-5-5-3.

Values by Neil Slater. Arranged by Neil Slater. For jazz ensemble (5-5-5-5). Jazz Masters series. Concert Jazz. Grade 5. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-1094).
Neil Slater has created a marvelous composition. It can be heard on Lab '91, as recorded by the University of North Texas One O' Clock Lab Band. "Values" opens with a stirring, slow theme and then moves into a 6/8 section that evolves into a marvelous fugue for the wind sections. This leads into the improvised tenor saxophone solo (a bright 4/4). The full ensemble takes over for a while, leading to a return to 6/8 for a trumpet solo. The piece then returns to the slow, gorgeous ending. Neil is one of the world's most accomplished jazz ensemble composers. 5-5-5-5.

You by Pat Metheny. Arranged by Bob Curnow. For jazz ensemble (5-4-4-4). Pat Methany series. Ballad. Grade 5. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-1091).
"You" was originally recorded by the Pat Metheny Group on the CD Speaking of Now. This ballad is a very emotional piece of music that features trombone (primarily), alto saxophone and trumpet. The lush, slow-moving harmonies and orchestration support the soloists until the entire ensemble takes over with a marvelous, "triumphant" phrase that is really something to hear. The piece ends in a quiet, pensive way. This is one of Pat's most beautiful melodies. 5-4-4-4.

It Could Happen To You (Pro) by Burke & Van Heusen. Arranged by Willie Maiden. For jazz ensemble (5-5-4-3 or 4-4-2-3). Maynard Ferguson series. Swing. Grade 4-5. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-1074).
The Pro (original) version of "It Could Happen To You" is absolutely wonderful. But you better have a "Maynard" in your trumpet section to get it done. This is a moderate-swing chart that will bring happiness and light to any program. The audio sample is of the edited version of this chart. 5-4-4-3 or original instrumentation.

It Could Happen To You (Edited) by Burke & Van Heusen. Arranged by Willie Maiden. For jazz ensemble (5-5-4-3 or 4-4-2-3). Maynard Ferguson series. Swing. Grade 4. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-1073).
"It Could Happen To You" is one of the best known standard tunes, and this arrangement certainly does it justice. Willie arranged this for the Maynard Ferguson band. This version is an edited chart that does away with the extremely high "Maynard" part. It is also a chorus longer than the original (Pro) version (see SMP-1074). The main soloist throughout is trumpet. This is a moderate-swing chart that will bring happiness and light to any program. This is the version on the audio sample. 5-5-4-3 or original instrumentation (4-4-2-3).
