Hi Jazzaferri,

i have contemporary Bigband-charts of "Swing Rêverie" (1946) and "Mélodie au crépuscule" (1945), both published by Francis Day, Paris. And I have an old Bigband-chart of "Menilmontant" by Charles Trenet as well. If you are interested I can send you copies.

Best,
Barengero

Andy thanks for that. Now I can download it.

After a discussion with The Powers that Be....


I will be doing Nuages. 18 piece big band chart. Late March it will be played and recorded so I will hopefully be able to post the results here at some point thereafter.

Thanks everyone for your inputs and advice.

What about Place de Broukère a nice tune for orchestra's riffs ...

A french unit called the Hot S. A. did a fun record a couple of years ago. They had one sax/clarinet, one trumpet and one trombone in the band, in addition to two guitars and a bass. Not a big band, apparently, but a lot of arranged parts for the wind instruments, very jazzy. And good singing by band members too! I like it a lot. There's very little on Youtube, but here's one example: Hot S. A.
