VOCAL JAZZ
Sing, Sing, Sing—Louis Prima/arr. Mark Brymer.
Here is one of the most famous tunes from the
big band era in a contemporary vocal jazz/show
choir setting. This is an extraordinary feature,
especially when you use the hot horns-and-rhythm
backup on the recorded accompaniment track!
Highly recommended!

4t Sir Duke—Stevie Wonder/arr. Paul Langford.
Here's Stevie Wonder's 1977 hit song like you've
never heard it before! Tight and rhythmically
precise harmonies set this arrangement up in an
a cappella setting that will appeal to vocal jazz and
a cappella groups. Reminiscent of Take 6's style,
these jazzy vocables will challenge your singers
and thrill your audience.

lL Solid Potato Salad—Don Raye, Gene de Paul
& Hughie Prince/arr. Kirby Shaw. This quirky song
about the popular potluck side dish originally
appeared in the 1944 MGM musical "Broadway
Rhythm." Retaining the characteristic sound and
style of the time period with bright jazz harmonies
and swing rhythms, this fun-to-sing piece is a
great introduction to vocal jazz for younger choirs.
With options for scat solos and a great track, this
arrangement hits all the right notes!

Lt Street Dance—Catherine Dalton. Brimming with
rhythm and excitement, here's a fun piece that's
just begging to be sung. In a retro, close harmony
a cappella style with some jazz harmonies, this
original showpiece is about how one person can
make a difference in the world. Feature a mezzo-
soprano and tenor soloists in the middle section,
and add some choreography for an exciting way to
open or close a concert.

D
Summertime (from "Porgy and Bess")—arr.
Roger Emerson. Unlike the original ballad heard
in the operetta, this is an easy swing choral
rendition placed in a key that is comfortable
for developing voices, with careful attention to
range and accessibility. The middle section with
a written-out scat solo can be easily repeated for
those choirs learning to improvise, while the familiar
melody creates a memorable hook that choirs and
audiences will really love.

4D The Surrey with the Fringe on Top (from
"Oklahoma!")—Rodgers & Hammerstein/arr. Paris
Rutherford. Here's a spin on a classic Broadway
tune! Set in a jazzy swing style with a combo
accompaniment, this clever arrangement can serve
many purposes. Introduce your choir to vocal jazz and
a show tune at the same time. Easier jazz harmonies
and a scat solo in the middle frame out the form, and
the arrangement is just so fun to sing!

H Swingin' with the Saints—arr. Mark Hayes.
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot and When The Saints Go

spirituals in such an exciting way that your choir
won't want it to end!
