This calypso-flavored composition from Sonny Rollins may not be as well known as his St. Thomas, but Duke of Iron is a distinctive and marvelous tune on its own. Featuring the two tenor saxes and two trombones off the top, this chart is well scored for the entire ensemble and sure to become a favorite. Solos are provided for tenor sax and trombone.

This new Calypso chart from jazz musician and educator Kris Berg might be the happiest piece ever written for young jazz ensemble. Like the classic Sonny Rollins piece St. Thomas, this composition uses simply basic chords and rhythms, but the end result is a sparkling, bright change of pace chart. Your rhythm section players will appreciate the carefully crafted parts that are easy to play, but sound great.

This is a great chart that combines a Chuck Mangione style for the first section with a Sonny Rollins island feel at the B section. This would be an excellent choice as a contrast tune for a concert or festival. Following the breezy solo section there is a 16-measure passage that features the winds with simple Hi-hat time.

Dreamin’ Out Loud is a very accessible calypso chart that is reminiscent of Sonny Rollins’s well known calypso tunes. An introductory chorale gives way to a happy, toe-tapping groove over which a tuneful melody is presented. The basic chord progression will accommodate multiple soloists. Great vehicle for exploring different rhythms and providing variety to a concert or festival program. Outstanding!
