Berklee Archives, Stan Getz Library, Berklee College of Music. - Page 5 - Woody Herman big band charts collection, 1946-1982 BCA-042 Biographical/Historical note In 1981, a large collection of charts and scores from Woody Herman's Thundering Herd was transferred, with Herman's permission, from the University of Houston Archives to Berklee College of Music. Under the custody of the Ensemble Department at Berklee, copies of charts were regularly lent out to bands across the country. Over time, individual members of the Ensemble Department acquired new charts that had been used by Herman's orchestra, such as a group of music composed and arranged by Alan Broadbent. In 2017, the collection of charts and scores was moved from the Ensemble Department to the Berklee Archives. Scope and Contents note The Woody Herman big band charts collection contains charts and scores used by Woody Herman's Thundering Herd. While the majority of the collection came to Berklee from the University of Houston, documentation within the collection also shows that some individual pieces were acquired at different points in time by members of the Berklee College of Music Ensemble Department. Composers and arrangers represented in the collection include Alan Broadbent, Tony Klatka, Gary Anderson, Nat Pierce, Bill Stapleton, Ralph Burns, Joe Roccisano, and Richard Evans, among others. Arrangement note The music in this collection is arranged alphabetically by song title.
