This unique500-page score includes these “missing movements” along with historical and program notes. Prepared and edited under the guidance of Gunther Schuller and Sue Mingus it provides a monumental resource for study andanalysis. The first jazz composition of such magnitude ever to be published it is presented in this edition as he left it: a summary work a portrait for all time of his life in music. “I wrote it for my tombstone.”- Charles Mingus

Alexander's Ragtime Band is classic Dave Wolpe---swinging and clever. Dave has taken this traditional Irving Berlin tune and twisted the chord changes and the rhythms just a little to earn it a top place in your library. No individual solos just swinging ensemble top to bottom with modest ranges (Trumpet to A Trombone to G) and the Wolpe touch make this ideal for any high school jazz ensemble. First class writing!

Vocal Feature-Another outstanding jazz vocal with jazz ensemble! This chart is totally flexible--it's written in two keys! The higher key usually works for your male vocalist and the lower key for your female vocalist; if not just switch. It's that easy! In addition to the vocal solo this swinging Rogers and Hart song has a trombone jazz solo (or optional scat vocal solo) and written written ensemble horn lines for the vocalist both great opportunities to integrate your vocalist with the ensemble. Dave Wolpe thinks of everything and he writes some of the best charts in the music business. Very effective! (Female key (low): G below middle C to third line B treble clef -- Male key(high): B-flat below middle C to fourth line D treble clef)
