Spiralarium, by Wil Swindler

(Level V) Spiralarium – Originally composed to feature Steve Wilson on soprano saxophone, this medium-up modern swing works great to feature a guest artist or a saxophonist from your band’s section.  The 2nd alto part is optional and can be omitted if the soloist is in the section.  The musically “dizzying” melody and changes is a good workout for the soloist and the ensemble.  8 Brass, Alto 1 or guest soloist needs Soprano.

I Should Care, Scott Arcangel


(Level IV) I Should Care, by Cahn, Stordahl & Weston, arranged by Scott Arcangel. This medium-swing arrangement of the classic standard draws stylistically from the writing of Michael Abene and Thad Jones.  A through-composed melodic introduction takes its time arriving at the melody, which features the flugelhorn.  Modal interludes are interspersed with the standard changes throughout the tune.  Melody and solo space make this a great feature for flugelhorn.  Choruses of ensemble writing make this a showpiece for the entire ensemble.  (8 Brass)
