Teachers consistently return to Herbie Hancock's trio of Grade 2 hits: Chameleon (376 units sold), Watermelon Man (327 units), and Cantaloupe Island (245 units). Victor López's Sing, Sing, Sing and Mike Story's You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch round out the frequently adopted titles, offering directors both classic swing and seasonal options that work across ensemble levels.

Mike Pendowski's Salsa on the Side, Ken Mattis's Can't Go Wrong, and Erik Morales's Just Playin' Around all arrived in February 2026, giving you fresh material for the current season.

Gordon Goodwin began composing complete pieces in his head at age five and wrote his first big band chart at thirteen. His prolific output of 168 titles reflects decades of work for television and film; his arrangement Wise Up continues to be widely adopted by directors building their jazz libraries. Dave Wolpe has been arranging since 1965 and brings deep experience with the Glenn Miller Orchestra and platinum Christmas recordings. His 142 contributions to this collection lean on his work with major big bands including those of Ray Anthony and Lawrence Welk. Kris Berg directs jazz studies at Collin County Community College in Texas and founded the Collin Jazz Fest and Texas All-Star Jazz Camp. His The Chicken arrangement has become a best-selling chart performed worldwide, reflecting his reputation as a composer whose work balances accessibility with musical substance.
