Alice In Wonderland

An arrangement by noted Los Angeles pianist/vocalist John Proulx with an orchestration by Los Angeles copyist/trombonist Curt Berg of that timeless classic by Bill Evans, Alice In Wonderland. In a cool jazz 3/4 meter, you will be mesmerized by the choice reharmonization of this classic melody. A very fun chart for your band to play. Sorry... no score available at this time.

Time & Space octet arrangement

A very difficult chart that has multiple instances of metric modulation and hemiolas!... is that really a word? This piece is so difficult, I have tried to rewrite the chart so many times so musiciians could read it and make sense out of it! At this writing (9/6/08) I am in the process of what will be the final draft. If it's still hard to play, well, I give up! This chart is from Bill Fulton's 2002 CD "Time." cond, tpt, alto sax, ten sax, trb, keys, gtr, bs, drums. Coming Soon!!!
