Thank you for all of the instructional videos Elliot. They have helped me a lot as a very early beginner big band arranger and composer. The advice given here as well as your arrangement of pure imagination (which is my personal favourite arrangement I've ever heard of the piece) gave me the idea to arrange pure imagination as a bossa nova so thank you for the inspiration.

I used to play with a drummer named John Shackelford in the 70s and 80s. I wonder if they are related? Love the arrangement!

I loved your C7 vs C13 hint. I just realized that the C13 isn’t just the harmony being used, but it really conveys the message to the piano player that this is how far you can go.

You guys are unbelievable! Keep posting videos! Your work is very important, for people who learned to play jazz improvise. But writing for a big band has remained a sacred mystery. I re-watch the lessons several times and enjoy your performances just as much. Good luck!

I've just "discovered" your channel. You do, in a couple of minutes, what it might take me a couple of weeks to finish. Amazing! I've been listening to recordings of Pandemonium Big Band, too. What an outstanding group of players you've assembled. Just THANKS! Good stuff, brother!

not accents - articulations 1. Staccato - short 2. Tenuto - play full value 3. Accent - emphasized, doesn’t imply anything about duration 4. Marcato - short + emphasized (in jazz) 5. Slur - full value, connected quarter note - could be short or long notes longer than quarter note - always long avoid dotted quarter with marcato short notes on the beat - quarter notes with marcato or staccato short notes on upbeat - eight note

wow very helpful tutorial. As a guitar player myself, I’m pretty fluent with music theory but not with how a big band horn section should sound. Thanks for giving me inspiration on how to write horns! Love from China. ❤

Near the end, where you harmonised the D melody note as a non chord tone, even though it was the root - that was great!! If I was ever taught that, I had forgotten lol Great video, glad I watched it!! Going to watch the sax one next 😀

Do you write the tenor and baritone parts in bass clef on the concert score or in treble clef

I’ve done it both ways. I usually do tenors in treble and bari in bass clef (concert score)

I play guitar with a traditional jazz big band with music on paper and also "sub in" with other big bands that uses Tablets (only). My fear on converting to digital is dealing with the DC/DS back pages and CODAs, and variable number of repeats (that can change from gig to gig). How easy is that to navigate with or without a bluetooth page turner? I am thinking of running Mobile Sheets on a Microsoft Surface Pro tablet. Any advice and experience is appreciated. Thank you !

This is great thank you so much! What if you sell your PDF arrangements of music? Patreon (as you might know!) allows you to sell products on your page and I'd like to sell some of my classical and medieval arrangements to my followers (medleys, rep I've turned into etudes with fingers/bowings etc.)...but I'm confused about the copyright. What are your thoughts? THANK YOU🙏 subscribed!

Can you talk more about the actual way you arrange for them. I.e. if writing for 5, do you exclusively harmonised 1-4 and put 5 down the octave. Or do you use 5 part harmonies? Likewise, if you were writing 5th parts for something that was only originally written for 4, what notes would you give 5th? (Assuming you can’t change the other 4 parts).

Great video - thanks! As a pianist, the other (4th?) sort of notation is the single line melody with chords - often helpful in a shout-chorus section
