Create horn arrangements with texture and style!
It's high time that someone published a complete guide to arranging for large horn sections. Now, for the first time, learn the same jazz ensemble arranging techniques taught by renowned Berklee College of Music faculty, and studied by the best and brightest arrangers working today.

Arranging for the Large Jazz Ensemble includes all the information you need when creating horn charts, fueling and inspiring you with the written charts of Berklee legends Jeff Friedman, Ted Pease, Scott Free, Greg Hopkins, and Bill Scism.
The play-along CD is a powerful tool for learning. It's also great for just listening and enjoying. It includes more than 60 demo tracks and arrangements written in the style of the masters like Count Basie, Duke Ellington, and Gil Evans, all performed by Berklee faculty.
Inside you'll learn:
Writing techniques: From simple unison- and octave-writing strategies to line writing, background writing and short chorus writing

Soli, background and shout choruses: Analyze and create these trademark elements for sax and brass
Special effects: A catalog of stylistically appropriate special effects like rips and doits will give you creative tools for adding texture to your horn arrangements
