Jazz Suite
The German composer and arranger Manfred Schneider has been playing for many years with the military band Heeresmusikkorps 300 at Cologne. In the meantime he got a reputation as composer of light symphonic music for concert band in Germany and abroad. In the Molenaar Edition catalogue you find already several of his compositions, such as Upside Down, Song of Freedom, the rhythmical study Rock and Go and the most popular Rock Symphonie. Schneider is well at ease in today's musical styles and this time he was inspired by jazz music. The three-part Jazz Suite starts with a nice jazz waltz; the more quiet second part is a fine jazz ballad, whereas the final part is an exuberant jazz samba. A com-plete percussion section and a piano will provide the typical jazz spirit.

The Way You Look Tonight
This arrangement of the bigband classic is based on the song as it was originally used in the film 'Swing Time' (1936) starring Fred Astaire. 'The Way You Look Tonight' won the Academy Award that year for best song. Several artists such as Frank Sinatra and Michael Bublé used it in their standard repertoire. Here is an excellent arrangement for bigband very similar to the original version. The extended instrumentation is particularly well suited for any entertainment music contest.

Hymn of Friendship
Michel van Delft should be considered as the inventor of the so-called 'play-ins'. These are meetings lasting for one or several days and gathering musicians from several wind bands into one big occasional wind band with the sole aim of making music together. This hymn is a symbol for the friendships that grow very spontaneously at those musical meetings.
