The Pink PantherHenry Mancini/arr. Jay
Althouse. This is phenomenal! Everyone knows the
catchy "Pink Panther" theme as an instrumental,
but... for choir? Of course! Scat syllables do the trick!
The familiar opening riff becomes "Ba dop ba da, ba
dop ba da" with finger snaps. Then the voices imitate
the horns and become a roaring choral big band!
The piano part provides solid support throughout this
awesome chart! Highly recommended!

with choir back-up, and finally a modulation to a full
