I'm thinking of buying a book for big band arranging and stuff like that but I'd like to know if anyone here knows a book he or she can recommend for this topic?
I have one called, "Jazz Composition & Orchestration," by William Russo. To be honest, I've never really gone through it in any depth - it's over 800 pages. But I bought it (a long time ago) because it was supposed to be good!
Sammy Nestico, The Complete Arranger, probably the most influential book for real arrangers. I went through Russo's book over 20 years ago, and it's some heavy duty shit at 800+ pages.
