I'm Ole from Norway, and play the piano in a big band. | We are thinking of buying a PA for our concerts. Venues for 200-250 people would be what we usually play for, but have some playroom to fill larger venues would be good. | Could someone point me in the direction of which speakers, monitors, mixers, microphones, etc we need? | We'd like to buy used, so no need for the latest models. | |

I am an amateur sax payer but also coaching high school jazz big band club. | As one of their re-partly, they often play Sammy Nestico's "Switch In Time". and I am looking for a publisher of the score for professional / original recording take. The score they have is one of the horrible them. The articulations of each sections are not uniform, and as it has been transcribed by amateur in old days, there are some mis-notes and not readable bars on some of the sheets. Could you let me know the publisher of the score in order to purchase? I have the one published by KENDOR Music, but it is slightly far from what I need. | | Best Regards, | | Tetsuya Fukuhara | | | |
