About George Shutack

George Shutack is a highly regarded American composer, primarily celebrated for his significant contributions to jazz ensemble music. He is especially recognized for creating accessible yet engaging charts tailored for younger players, making him a cornerstone in jazz education. His work, often published through Doug Beach Music and Kendor Music, emphasizes solid rhythmic grooves and melodic writing, establishing him as an influential figure in contemporary educational jazz repertoire.

George Shutack began his musical journey early, playing the trumpet in 4th grade and piano in 6th grade, and started writing stage band arrangements as early as 7th grade.
His first published piece, "Prelude To A Journey," a flugelhorn feature inspired by Chuck Mangione and written in 7/4 time, was released in 1978.
Beyond music, Shutack has a passion for architecture, which inspired his composition "Fallingwater," a tribute to Frank Lloyd Wright's iconic building.
He is also the co-creator of the popular "Chili Pepper Series" for jazz ensemble, which launched in 1990.

Performing George Shutack’s sheet music offers a rewarding experience for a wide range of musicians, particularly developing jazz ensembles at grade 2-4 levels, though he also provides more challenging compositions. His charts are often praised for their infectious melodies, strong rhythmic grooves, and solid ensemble writing, providing excellent opportunities for skill development. Many pieces include open solo sections, allowing for both written and improvised solos, which can serve as an accessible entry point into improvisation. Shutack's works are ideal for concerts and festivals, offering vibrant and engaging material that is enjoyable for both performers and audiences.
