I have had the exciting opportunity to arrange music for a variety of groups in many different styles. I have arranged music for different sized groups with various instrumentation.
Some of the types of groups for which I have arranged music are the following:
Show choir band (various 5- to 13-piece groups)
Big band (full 17-piece band)
Jazz combo (lead sheet and horn parts)
Full rock/top 40/pop band (rhythm parts and horn arrangements)
Horn arrangements (2- to 5-part arrangements)
Corps style horn band
I have been fortunate to do arranging work for the following:
Busch Gardens Williamsburg
Ball State University
Williamsburg Classic Swing Orchestra (big band for which I am co-director)
Hot House (rock/top 40/pop band for which I am music director)
Limelight (5-piece jazz group for which I am music director)
Various Virginia high schools (show choir band arrangements)
Various Indiana high schools (show choir band arrangements)
I have the ability to arrange for any type of group. Please contact me if you are in need of any musical arrangements.
