EDUCATORS: Check out the Flexible Instrumentation Big Band charts from VJC Publications. And hear this great new music on our YouTube channel. VJC Publications offers flex. charts that don't compromise. These are exceptional investments for your ensemble library: Great charts to have during your program's robust years...and total lifesavers during the occasional lean years, too. Please give them a look and a listen!
RECOMMENDED LISTENING
With so much music available streaming online and as digital downloads, figuring out what to listen to that will most benefit a developing student can be quite a challenge. In the months to come, this page will present jazz playlists of historically significant recordings, helping to winnow down the choices from seemingly infinite options. These playlists will be compiled from online sources and collected social media.
Check back here for our first couple of playlists, COMING SOON!
