AL LEVY'S COMBO ARRANGEMENTS

All of the following are available as midi, pdf., on CD, tape or printed music.

The midi files on this server are modified and somewhat abbreviated. There is enough of each song (about 20 measures) to give you a feel for what they are like.

In 1993 I found some reel to reel tapes with recordings of my 4 piece combo. They date from 1955 to 1970. I transferred them to casette in 1993 and then to cd in 1999. July 2010 I created the Mp3 files. I don't have all the tunes but for better or for worse I'll lay on you what I have. Some feedback would be nice.

Anything can be ordered by email:Al Levy

Until Licencing agreements are signed with ASCAP,
BMI and the FOX AGENCY, most midis will not be
available on line.

Four to Eight Instruments

These are arrangements written for my working group. Originally scored for ALTO, TRPT, PIANO, and DRUMS.

When I started using Finale (1993) I added a BASS part. And thanks to software the TENOR SAX, and BASS parts are available.
All the "live performances" were performed with Alto, Trumpet, Drums and Piano.

With a little imagination can be used for almost any combo.

Recorded CD's available $19.00 each includes domestic p/h. Midi files are also available.

Charts cost $35.00 each.

First four not numbered (v)= Vocal (j)= Jazz Chorses

These arrangements are written so that a group can segue into a tune from something being faked. They can be segued out of to a fake tune, or they can be used as stand alone songs. Very flexible.
