Transcribed Scores - Volume 1

By Chicago

This book is very detailed, and all parts are there if you wish to study them. It would be great for those who want to play the solo parts note-for-note. The "mixed blessing" is that the horn parts are already transposed. A boon to those players, a problem...

for someone like myself, who wanted to see the horn parts in concert key, so they can be voiced as a keyboard part! I'll have to transpose the parts back to concert key for this book to be useful to me. Musicians who are not acquainted with the whole concept and process will be extremely confused. So, be prepared!

I Grew up on Chicago . It was and still is the Band of My Generation . Horn Bands. The Transcribed Scores are accurate to the Note. I have been Playing Trumpet since 7th Grade. eons ago. Now I Play for our Worship Team at Church. I have most of the Chicago...

CD`s . I Put a CD on and Tune up to the CD and Try to Keep up with Lee Loughnane Trumpet player for Chicago. It`s a Good Warm up for Practice . You will Find Out it is a lot of Fun to Play along. I also Have Volume 2 . Don`t get discouraged if You miss notes keep on Playing . I have learned a lot from these Scores . I have both of these books since 97. Enjoy

This book is absolutely perfect! Every little thing in the recording is here in standard notation. If you love Chicago (Which i do), then this book is perfect for you.

These scores are exactly as you hear them on the record. A fantastic volume. My only complaint is the guitar part is written in normal music notation, but that separates the men from the boys I guess. Very helpful, keep up the good work!

These scores are well written and the details of the solos are well done.
