Les Hooper Big Band Noten

A medium tempo swing oriented piece with ensemble figures and harmonic sculpture out of the ''cool school'' of jazz. Finesse is the key word, and a bit of underselling is needed to execute the chart p...

Easy groovin', slow swinger. A great tool to keep the rhythm section tight. Proof that music at this level does NOT have to be boring.

Originally recorded on the Miles Davis landmark recording Kind of Blue, here is a swingin' and updated take on this all-time blues favorite. Tasty full ensemble interludes surround solo space for alto...

After a medium-tempo intro that features a piano line, the chart morphs into a burnin' swing chart at 250+ BPM so hang on to your hat. Solo space is provided for tenor but you can open this up easily....

This is a very fresh sounding, interesting and fun piece ....... just what we have come to expect from Les Hooper. Lots of counterpoint (and counter rhythms) and a wonderful solo section (you choose t...

This is a great swingin' blues chart that is playable by most any band. With solo space for almost anybody, this toe-tapping tune is a great vehicle for opening up a chart to showcase the soloists in...

Can you say 'trip-uh-let'? This fun, down home swingin' chart was recorded by the Les Hooper Big Band on 'Dorian Blue'. With reasonable brass ranges, there is plenty of solo space for baritone saxopho...

An up-tempo be-bop type chart, with the clever, interesting writing we have come to expect from Les Hooper. (condensed score)

This chart is a play on Minnie the Mooch and somewhat set in that era. It's a modern day Swing chart with bebop roots. The chart sounds old fashioned and modern all at the same time. It has modern ele...

Les has created another techno-swing chart that has overtones of the old swing band style, but it is set very much in modern day fashion. The 'open' solo section can feature any one or a number of sol...

Les has come up with another new, wonderful, medium-up-swing chart that will surely be a best-seller. The tune is almost celtic in its style, and the solo section in the middle of the chart is flexibl...
