From Dixie To Swing



15 pages, Item number 1400169DT, $24.98

Such jazz legends as Dick Wellstood, Alphonse 'Doc' Cheatham, George Duvivier, and more back you up in this amazing collection of New York-style Dixieland standards. After the break-up of the big-band era around 1950, many of the finest swing players found themselves without an outlet for their abilities and took to playing Dixieland in New York clubs such as Eddie Condon's and the Metropole. A new style of Dixieland jazz was born, minus the banjos, tubas, steamboats and magnolias! It is this version we celebrate with this folio! We encourage you, the soloist, to invent counter-melodies rather than mere harmony parts. This is music of loose weaving parts, not one of precision ensemble figures. In short, it is one of the greatest improvisational experiences any jazz player could hope to have!

Phillip Lambro - Two Pictures For Solo Percussionist
Item number 1400212DT, $39.50

"Two Pictures" by modern composer Phillip Lambro is an enticing composition for the solo percussionist and orchestra. By using a wide variety of percussion instruments, the composer was able to paint a beautiful picture and added a dimension to music that is rarely seen by featuring the percussion. This piece works wonderfully if you want to show off the skills of a virtuoso percussionist as it requires skill, control, and knowledge of how to use each instrument properly. Please note that the piano accompaniment is for two pianos.
