Count Basie Stocks
in the collections of the Music Division, Library of Congress
Washington, DC 20540-4820
(Bregman Vocco & Conn series)
This is a list of "stock arrangements" -- published sets of parts
for jazz orchestra -- identified on their covers as being from the
repertory of the Count Basie band. Most of them are published by
Bregman, Vocco, and Conn. We have not, however, omitted stocks by
other publishers. These are stocks contemporary with the band's recordings,
not later sets of parts designed for reconstruction of Basie performances:
they may not in all cases be "as played by the Basie orchestra" and
contain few transcriptions of improvised solos.
All of these arrangements are, so far as we know, protected by copyright.
Many of them are protected by several. You will need permission from
all copyright owners before we can make copies for you. The Copyright
Office will search their records to find the current owners of copyright
in any particular arrangement for a fee of $20.00 an hour (as of
August 1992). Their address is: Copyright Office, Library of Congress,
Washington, D.C., 20559.
