“Why Not?” is the most well-known piece by Dominican Republic pianist/composer Michel Camilo. It appeared for the fist time on his 1984 album record “French Toast”. He re-recorded it in 1985 for the “Why Not?”-album whoich is among his best-selling to date. The song has also been recorded by other artist like the vocal group The Manhattan Transfer. “Why Not?” ia a modern latin-jazz classic and this demaning arrangement for Concert Band captures the featureless and musical challenges of the original piece.

Good Night Suite - Suite in Five Movements-Good Night Suite is written for beginning band and suitable for the youngest musicians. The level of difficulty is at lowest grade and the rhythms are equal in all wind parts. The register on each instrument is also customized to each part. Some easy solos appears in some sections and in Mvt. 4 there are different rhythm in the melody and bass parts. The level of difficulty is the same for all five movements. The movements may of course be played as single pieces. When all movements are mastered it's possible to play the suite as a kind of fairytale with simple dramaturgy or choreography. Maybe the whole band can be dressed in their pajamas?

This is the main theme from the movie “Gåten Ragnarock” (2013) superbly composed by Norwegian composer Magnus Beite. The music is narrative with long melodic lines combined with a rhythmic drive. This arrangement tries to capture the symphonic expression from the original orchestral score. There are several unison lines. Intonation balance and phrasing are important to make these sounding as good as possible. Clear articulation in the rhythmic passages are also important. The piece is very evocative and may fit very well into any concert program.

This is really a powerhouse of a piece! Hard-driving rock’n roll at a high tempo with the Jazz Police at the heels… Please note the dynamics. Tempo and good articulation is a very big part of the energy of this piece. Fortissimo first appears at bar 113. A useful tip: It’s possible to practice this one also at lower dynamic levels.
