harmonies, making it a great bridge between what
was and what is.

Summertime (from "Porgy and Bess")—arr.
Roger Emerson. Unlike the original ballad heard
in the operetta, this is an easy swing choral

develop artistry in each individual
through exercises that build styles
such as Swing, Latin and Rock,
using solfege and scat syllables
as well as tone and blend in ballad
style. Each exercise includes a

with multiple modulations, and a
professional recording of singers
with a rhythm section.
