Mark Taylor | Hal Leonard Mark Taylor In 2001 Mark retired as chief arranger for The United States Army Band ("Pershing's Own"), where he was on staff for 24 years. During that time, he composed extensively for the U.S. Army Blues, writing all of the material for their album A New Beginning and much of the material for Scream Machine. His arrangements and compositions have been performed by the Army Blues throughout the world, including concerts at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival in Montreux, Switzerland. Prior to joining the Army, Mark was fortunate to write for Stan Kenton, who recorded many of his compositions and also gave him his start in music publishing. He has a large publishing portfolio and has influenced thousands of student musicians, many of whom were first exposed to big band jazz through his music. His latest project is the Taylor/Fidyk Big Band, which is co-led with Washington D.C. drummer Steve Fidyk. They released their CD A Perfect Match in 2002 to rave reviews. Their new CD Live at Blues Alley has just been released on the OA2 record label. Mark is a highly regarded clinician presenting many workshops on arranging for the jazz band, most recently appearing at the Midwest Band Clinic in Chicago. Mark holds a master's degree in music from the University of North Texas. Mark is currently a staff arranger for Hal Leonard Corporation and resides in Cape Coral, Florida.

John Berry | Hal Leonard John Berry Warsaw, Indiana's John Berry learned arranging the hard way - by transcribing tunes from Stan Kenton records. By the age of 16, he was on a lifelong course of writing hundreds of works for jazz bands, including a 45-minute original composition for jazz ensemble and symphony orchestra. In 1973, he left his gig as Selmer's Professional Manager to join the U.S. Army Jazz Ambassadors, where he served ten years as a bass trombonist, Chief Arranger and Assistant Director. He wrote over 100 compositions and arrangements for the band, winning commendations from the Army and beginning his career as a published writer. John began writing for Jensen Publications (later acquired by Hal Leonard Corporation) in 1981. After his Army days ("the neatest gig I ever had"), he moved to Phoenix and began teaching at various colleges, including Arizona State University and Grand Canyon University. He now teaches Music Business at the Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences in Tempe, Arizona. In addition to his music credentials (which include study at Indiana University and private study with several Chicago Symphony lower brass players), John has a Communications Degree and a Masters Degree in Human Resources. He and his School Superintendent wife Robin live in Buckeye, Arizona on a four-acre "ranch-ette" with three horses and a donkey, among other animals. Publications by John Berry
