Nasty Magnus (Q.Jones)

"Nasty Magnus (Q.Jones)" is a documented big band arrangement credited to Quincy Jones as both arranger and original composer. The catalog record identifies the ensemble as Big Band and lists the style as not specified, so this entry focuses on the confirmed scoring and materials rather than assigning a stylistic category. The arrangement is supplied with a confirmed conductor score and confirmed individual parts, providing the core materials needed for rehearsal and performance preparation. At 110 pages, the complete set represents a substantial item for an advanced big band program. The instrumentation covers a full saxophone section—Alto Saxophones 1 and 2, Tenor Saxophones 1 and 2, and Baritone Saxophone—alongside five trumpet parts, three trombone parts, and Bass Trombone. The rhythm section is represented by Guitar, Piano, Bass, and Drum Set. This 18-part listing gives players and directors a clear view of the documented ensemble requirements before selecting the arrangement for a program or rehearsal schedule. Because no composition date, duration, key, tempo, featured solo information, or additional performance details are confirmed in the metadata, those fields are intentionally not described here. The catalog record is therefore best used as a factual reference for advanced big band personnel, score-and-parts availability, and the credited Quincy Jones authorship.

The documented instrumentation includes Alto Saxophones 1–2, Tenor Saxophones 1–2, Baritone Saxophone, Trumpets 1–5, Trombones 1–3, Bass Trombone, Guitar, Piano, Bass, and Drum Set.
