Arranging for the Small Jazz Ensemble presents an innovative
approach to the challenging subject of jazz arranging. The author,
Robert Larson, has narrowed down the choices of instrumentation and
texture in such a way that anyone from a novice jazz enthusiast to
a seasoned professional can learn how to arrange jazz standards and
originals in a relatively short period of time. Four original jazz
tunes are used throughout the book to demonstrate texture,
instrumentation, introductions, endings, interludes, solo
backgrounds, solis, and shout choruses. Each chapter contains
exercises that give the reader a chance to practice the techniques
learned in that chapter. By the end of the study, the reader will
be equipped to create a complete jazz arrangement. With everything
you need here in one book, why aren't you Arranging for the Small
Jazz Ensemble?
Whoever becomes our 44th president will have to put health reform
right at the top of his-or her-agenda. The question is not whether
there will be reform-the question is what direction it will take.
Already now, in early 2007, we can see the contours of two very
distinctly different ideas of how to reform our health care system.
On the Democratic side, Senators Clinton and Obama, and former
senator John Edwards, are all in favor of national, single payer
health insurance. On the Republican side, Governor Mitt Romney has
a strong record of health reform. He was instrumental in putting
together an interesting market-based health reform in
Massachusetts. Is his model strong enough to be a credible
alternative to a universal, single payer system? This book
discusses the two main alternatives and points to weaknesses in the
single payer model: very high taxes, unacceptable waiting lists,
inefficiencies and the often overlooked ethical problems with
government-run health care. Unless the Democrats can show how they
want to overcome these problems, voters should look for other
solutions. At the same time, this book also recognizes that the
best alternative-the Romney model-is far from perfect. It is filled
with bureaucratic stumbling blocks and its costs to taxpayers are
underestimated. This book suggests how some key reforms to the
Romney model can make it a credible platform for fixing our
nation's health care system.
In today's society, public and private morality are often
inconsistent and mutually exclusive. More than ever Christians need
to become people of honesty and integrity, whole and complete. This
studyguide will encourage you to think about what integrity is and
how to grow in character from the inside out.
