About This Collection
Description
Advance Music's jazz ensemble collection brings essential repertoire to your studio or ensemble program, with material spanning swing standards, blues, and contemporary jazz composition. Teachers rely on titles like Boom-Boom by Bob Brookmeyer and Skylark by Hoagy Carmichael for their balance of musicality and playability. You'll find conductor scores and parts, many with recorded accompaniment, suited to intermediate and advanced ensembles.
Highlights
Boom-Boom by Bob Brookmeyer consistently tops the list, alongside Skylark by Hoagy Carmichael and Morning by Clare Fischer. Jim Snidero's Jazz Conception: Passage remains a favorite for saxophone sections, combining pedagogical rigor with engaging ensemble writing and includes a CD for practice and performance reference.
Recently added
Jim Snidero has contributed four new titles in the past year: River Suite, Slipping Away, Forever Gone, and Ventura. Jerry Livingston's It's the Talk of the Town and Fred Lacey's Theme For Ernie round out recent additions to the catalog.
Composer & Author Spotlight
Jim Snidero has shaped contemporary jazz education as both composer and performer. A Down Beat-recognized alto saxophonist and arranger, Snidero brings three decades of professional experience to his writing, making his compositions accessible without sacrificing musical substance. His Jazz Conception series and recent ensemble works reflect that balance.
Bob Brookmeyer's presence in this collection speaks to the value of working with material by artists who lived the tradition. His compositions like Boom-Boom and Celebration Suite: I. Celebration Jig combine arranging sophistication with ensemble warmth that students respond to immediately.
Bill Dobbins and Manuel Ramirez represent the range here: Dobbins brings the lyrical sensibility found in Elegy, while Ramirez adds Latin textures through pieces like Amanece y tu no estas, widening the stylistic palette available to your ensemble.
