Guys,
is anybody of you aware of any literature or interesting web pages
addressing the topic of Big Band management. I'm talking about people
(or better musicians) management, administration, repertoire,
organisation, etc. (I am not a conductor or leader of a Big Band).
Thanks in advance for your reply.
