Free Big Band Arrangements
This page is still a "work-in-progress," ​but PLEASE check-out what is here

On this page you will find links to several of my compositions and arrangements for the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra.  Most of these arrangements were commissioned by the NOJO. Please click on the title to download the scores and parts in PDF format. There are some links to MP3s.  I plan to add more arrangements and recordings in the near future.  If you have any questions about the music, please call me at (985)246-9077 or email me at edwardpetersenmusic@gmail.com
​

​As one might imagine, many hours of work went into writing these arrangements.  If you play these (or even if you don't!) and feel inspired to send the arranger a donation, that would be AMAZING!!!  Just click on the button below to make a secure Paypal donation to a needy family (mine)...Thanks, Ed
