Cheshire Cat (J.Chattaway)

“Cheshire Cat (J.Chattaway)” is a big band arrangement credited to Maynard Ferguson, with Jay Chattaway listed as the original composer. The catalog metadata does not specify a musical style, so this entry presents the work without assigning one. The arrangement is documented at medium difficulty and is listed at 39 pages, providing a substantial amount of material for ensemble preparation and performance. Confirmed parts are available for Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Piano, Bass, and Drums. These eight listed instruments or parts define the documented scoring in the catalog record. A conductor score is not confirmed in the available metadata and is therefore not identified as included. For working musicians, the listing is useful as a clear reference to the credited creators, ensemble format, documented page count, difficulty level, and confirmed instrumental coverage. Because no additional information is verified for style, duration, tempo, key, featured passages, or performance history, those details are intentionally omitted. The title is recorded exactly as “Cheshire Cat (J.Chattaway),” preserving the catalog’s distinction between the arrangement credit for Maynard Ferguson and the original-composer credit for Jay Chattaway. This entry is intended to support practical selection and ensemble planning using only the information confirmed in the catalog metadata. This is a medium-difficulty Big Band arrangement with 39 documented pages. Confirmed individual parts are listed for Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Piano, Bass, and Drums.
