Flexible Instrumentation for Any Ensemble

From swing and ballad to Latin and holiday tunes, there's something for everyone in this collection. And, of course, no jazz ensemble book would be complete without the classic 'Take Five' in 5/4 time signature!
Supportive Rhythm Section Parts and Guitar Chords
The rhythm section parts in this collection are designed to provide helpful suggestions for rhythms and piano voicings, while guitar chords are included to assist young guitarists.
