Mix 'em or match 'em. $100 each, or $350 for four. All Charts were arranged for Class C Band by Steve Schmidt, Riverside Comm College Band, Riverside, CA; MP3 demos available; both Synthesized and Original (except the Kerchner chart). Drum Corps-style arrangements. (Tp never exceeds Concert F, Fl double Tp, Clar double Hn, Saxes double Low Brass) All are "Virgin Charts," ie original.   You get moderate exclusivity; No duplicate sales for a 400 mile radius.

I purchased these arrangements, both custom and published, out of my own pocket; so I can sell 'em out of my own pocket.

I'd be glad to send along recordings of any of these charts, as well as copies of the lead trumpet part.
