About this collection
Dave Wolpe Sheet Music
Dave Wolpe's jazz ensemble arrangements bring the Great American Songbook to life for intermediate players. This collection features vocal solos and full jazz ensemble charts built on standards from Broadway, film, and television. The titles in top rotation—At Last, Straighten Up and Fly Right, How High the Moon, and Mack the Knife—pair classic melodies with accessible Grade 3 to Grade 4 instrumentation.
Who it's for
- Jazz directors building a semester of accessible standards
- Vocal soloists paired with jazz rhythm sections or ensembles
- Educators introducing students to swing and Great American Songbook repertoire
What's inside
- Vocal solos and jazz ensemble arrangements at Grade 3 to 4 difficulty
- Conductor scores with full parts for saxophone, trumpet, trombone, drums, guitar, piano, and bass
- Reference books like Singin' with the Jazz Combo for teaching and performance

Things to consider
Most titles sit at Grade 3, making them suitable for first-year jazz ensembles; Grade 4 options are available if your group needs a stretch. Purchase the conductor score and parts set together so your ensemble has everything needed for rehearsal. The vocal solo arrangements work well as featured performances or as centerpieces for a concert built around a single composer or era.
