This year I have had the privilege of conducting Gould Academy Jazz Band, taking over for James McLaughlin, who taught me everything I know about teaching music and motivating students to do their best.
The links below show images of the first pages of some of the big band arrangements I have written this year using Finale 2001. I've learned more about arranging, here at Gould Academy in 3 months than I learned while attending Berklee College of Music back in the late 70's. I'm thankful to all the student musicians here who have helped, and continue to help me get my act together.
If you have comments or questions please contact me (Tom Zicarelli) at zicarelt@gouldacademy.org
