ARRANGEMENTS BY CALVIN JACKSON

Scope and Content of Series

Series 2) ARRANGEMENTS BY CALVIN JACKSON: This series reflects the range of Jackson's work as an arranger and leader of his own ensemble. While twentieth century North American composers of jazz and popular music predominate, Jackson also re-interpreted folk melodies ( Greensleeves, Shenandoah) as well as works by J.S. Bach, Georges Bizet, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Robert Schumann, and others. Two of his longer arrangements are the "re-visit" to George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, and the anthology, Theme Medley of Jazz Bands. Manuscript scores and parts are filed alphabetically, first by composer's name and then by title of piece. Anonymous works are interfiled by title.
