I play in a wedding/party band and we have a book of over 300 charts. At the moment, about 230 of them have horn parts. Guess what? These charts were painstakingly put together over years and years, mostly by the leader of the band who is quite talented when it comes to writing, arranging, and transcribing music. To give you an idea of where he comes from as an arranger, he took arranging lessons from Hank Levy for quite a while. (several years, I think) There are a few charts that were put together by someone else, but Justin did most of them himself.

I'm not sure if any of that stuff is commercially available, but I would tend to think that with all of the time our band leader puts into putting a new chart together, I would tend to think that he'd buy them if he could.
