About This Collection
Description
FJH's jazz ensemble collection spans 232 titles across four difficulty series, from beginning through advanced levels. Teachers rely on Chris Sharp's warm-up books—both "Warm-Ups for Beginning Jazz Ensemble" and "Warm-Ups for Developing Jazz Ensemble"—as foundation-building tools that appear in ensembles nationwide. The catalog leans heavily into swing, blues, and Latin styles, with accessible arrangements of standards like Horace Silver's "Nutville" and holiday favorites that work for both classroom and performance contexts.
Highlights
Chris Sharp's warm-up collections dominate this catalog, with his beginning and developing ensemble books forming the backbone of many programs. Teachers also gravitate toward seasonal repertoire like "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," both by Johnny Marks, which bring festive energy to grade 3 and 5 ensembles. Horace Silver's "Nutville" provides a jazz standard that students enjoy learning and performing.
Recently added
Three new titles arrived in February: "Salsa on the Side" by Mike Pendowski, "Can't Go Wrong" by Ken Mattis, and "Just Playin' Around" by Erik Morales, adding fresh material across different stylistic grounds to the collection.

Chris Sharp holds a Ph.D. and spent eleven years as a performing trombonist and band leader at Walt Disney World before shifting to full-time composition and orchestration.

Erik Morales brings over 150 published works spanning classical, jazz, and commercial genres, with a distinctive melodic and harmonic language that appeals across skill levels. His arrangements and compositions populate this collection with titles suitable for both festival preparation and everyday ensemble building. Rob Vuono Jr. has contributed 48 titles to FJH's jazz lineup, providing a deep well of accessible repertoire across multiple difficulty levels for teachers seeking variety without sacrificing pedagogical value.
