Vista
Andy says: "I wrote most of 'Vista' while on a summer vacation with my family near Banff Alberta, and I'm sure the breath-taking mountain scenery had an affect on the outcome. Overall I was going for a feeling of space or openness with this composition. The 6/8 feel with eighth notes grouped in two's is obviously African-influenced, and was in fact inspired by a piece from Mauritius that I happened to hear on the radio."
Other Features:
- Solo space for baritone sax and drums
- 6/8 feel and 3/4 feel

Funk Out
Michael says: "Funk Out is fun tune based on the early funk sounds of the 1960’s and ‘70’s. It features the lead alto sax in the rubato ballad opening section and gives the lead alto the opportunity to improvise over the chord changes at letter D. Check out the challenging syncopated sections which feature the horns trading rhythms reminiscent of Tower of Power."
Other features:
- Lead trumpet to high D
- Alto sax feature
- Challenging horn sectional parts

First X's Free
“First X’s Free” goes from a mysterious, driving, straight 8th’s feel to a groovy, half time funk feel. It’s a high energy tune that will keep your band wanting to play week after week. It features the soprano saxophone and the trombone. It also features some muted work by the brass and a chance to let your rhythm section let loose!
Other Features:
- Woodwind section is: soprano, alto, 2 tenors & baritone sax

The Phone Don't Ring Jack
Andy says: This composition is a loving homage to the great Canadian trombonist/arranger/composer Ron Collier. The title is from an impassioned speech Ron once gave to a first-year jazz ensemble at Humber college warning of what their fate would be in the music business if they didn’t practice and get their “stuff” together. And yes, I was in that ensemble. The Phone Don’t Ring Jack is a feature for trombone, with a trumpet solo on the double-time section. The trumpet solo could just as effectively be taken by one of the saxophones in the band. The difficulty level is advanced, with a challenging lead trumpet part (up to Eb) and fairly complex rhythms.

The Path
This original composition takes the band through a variety of grooves including gospel and funk. Some tricky rhythm section and horn lines, and the feel requires a more mature band. A strong lead trumpet is also required.
Other Features:
- Improvising for tenor sax
