delightful syncopations that are much easier to
feel than they look on paper. It will be well worth
the time you put into it, as many satisfied vocal
ensembles have already found out!

4 Cry Me a RiverArthur Hamilton/arr. Jay
Althouse. This popular torch song was originally
composed for Ella Fitzgerald, but ended up being
dropped from the film "Pete Kelly's Blues." She
would eventually record it six years later, but in the
meantime, a recording by Julie London introduced
it to the world. Jay's sweet harmonies make for a
bluesy arrangement.

Mel Torme called this tune "the national anthem
for group singers." It's been recorded by everyone
from Frank Sinatra to George Shearing, and most
recently by Michael Buble on his CD, Call Me
Irresponsible. This is the quintessential vocal group
number! The voice parts are easy, so it's a great
piece to work on tone and blend for any ensemble
of any size, including beginning vocal jazz groups.
Highly recommended!

you, and these mem'ries lose their meaning ,
when I think of love as something new...In my
life, I love you more."

young vocal jazz group is ready to experience the
great music of Duke Ellington, turn them loose

l Jazz AlleluiaCraig Curry. From quiet to
soaring, this original choir piece is lyrically
simple, yet profound in the exploration of the
many "moods" of praising with a single word.
The word "Alleluia" or "Hallelujah" (from Hebrew)
literally means "Praise ye Yah" or "Praise Jah, you
people." By paying close attention to phrasing,
dynamics and tempo coloring, the piece will come
alive all the more in its presentation.
10428815 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95
Jazz CantateAndy Beck. The brief Latin text
"Cantate canticum novum" means "Sing a new
song." Set at an easy jazz-waltz tempo, this is a
marvelous blend of Latin and English text, canonic
verses and jazz sonorities. A fresh, creative
approach to a work based on a Latin text, it is an
excellent choice for concert, contest or festival!
Highly recommended!
