n Route 66Bobby Troup/arr. Emerson. With a laid-
back swing feel and some simple ensemble scat
singing, this is ideal for beginning vocal jazz groups
in middle schools. The helpful performance notes on
the opening page will give your students the basics
of the style as they learn to sing this classic jazz
tune. A great way to get started singing vocal jazz!

4t Sambalelearr. Will Lopes. The word "samba"
comes from a Brazilian rhythm and dance, and the
word "lele" is an expression of excitement. Vocal
percussion, exciting dynamics, snappy rhythmic
figures and fun Portuguese text combine to make
this a one-of-a-kind a cappella experience for your
choir and audience.

Since I Fell For YouBuddy Johnson/arr. Jay
Althouse. This beautiful blues ballad appeared on
the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1963, a bit surprising
since it was written in 1945! Tight choral harmony
and a subtle accompaniment make this sad tale
come alive. "You took my love and now you're gone."

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!

4 So Danco Samba (Jazz 'n' Samba)Antonio
Carlos Jobim/arr. Roger Emerson. Here is the
perfect way to introduce your young singers to the
Brazilian jazz samba, or bossa nova. Just enough
repetition, some simple scat singing, and English
subtext are a recipe for success. There's even a
jazz tenor sax on the recorded accompaniment
track, a tip of the hat to the great Stan Getz, who
started the bossa nova craze in the US back in
1964. This is a great teaching piece, too, with a
full page of performance notes, including translation
and pronunciation guide.

l Speak Softly, Love (Love Theme)arr. Kirby
Shaw. This soft samba setting of the famous love
theme from "The Godfather" offers plenty of options
to showcase your choir's singing skills: blend, style,
rhythm, and an ensemble scat interlude. A great
change of pace for vocal jazz groups.

n Sway (Quien Sera?)arr. Kirby Shaw. "When
marimba rhythms start to play, dance with me,
make me sway. Like the lazy ocean hugs the
shore, hold me close, sway me more..." One of the
most recognizable of all Latin standards, recently
covered by Michael Buble, this sings beautifully in
Kirby Shaw's tasteful setting. Brimming with style
and sophistication, this will add a real touch of class
to your program! Highly recommended!

Sweet Home ChicagoRobert Johnson/arr.
Roger Emerson. Introduce your young singers
to the blues with this Robert Johnson classic
from 1937, memorably covered by The Blues
Brothers. With a shuffle-style rhythmic feel, vocal
fall-offs and accessible jazz harmonies, this is a
great arrangement, perfect for developing vocal
jazz groups!

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot and When The Saints Go
Marching In really belong together in this dynamic,
soulful setting, which contrasts the two classic
spirituals in such an exciting way that your choir
won't want it to end!

n Take Fivearr. Kirby Shaw. One of the true icons of
jazz, Dave Brubeck, made this Paul Desmond tune a
household name. Brubeck wrote his own text to this
angular tune that Kirby Shaw has translated into a
stellar vocal jazz feature. The smooth 5/4 meter is
made even sweeter with Kirby's own vocal layering
and harmonic twists. Brubeck-Desmond-Kirby Shaw;
it just doesn't get any better than this for vocal jazz,
and we give it our highest recommendation!

Until I Met You (Corner Pocket)arr. Paris
Rutherford. This Freddie Green standard was
made famous in its instrumental version, Corner
Pocket, by the Count Basie Orchestra, and
later as a vocal by The Manhattan Transfer.
Paris Rutherford's challenging arrangement will
showcase your vocal jazz ensemble and soloists
in a most impressive way.

t Voice DanceGreg Jasperse. This is amazing!
A wordless vocal dance, celebrating the human
voice and the joy of singing together - this
goes beyond vocal jazz into the realm of sound
painting. Unlike most vocal jazz, the syllables
used are virtually all open vowel sounds, such as
Ba va da do way and Da dee ya dan do way. For
choirs at the medium-advanced level, this creates
a compelling vocal texture such as you've never
heard! Highly recommended!

4 You're Lookin' at MeBobby Troup/arr. Kirby
Shaw. Famously recorded by Nat King Cole,
Cleo Laine, Diana Krall and others, this heartfelt
ballad will showcase the skill and technique of
your vocal jazz ensemble at their best! Set in a
laid-back 4, with tasty harmonies and sensitive
rhythmic nuances, this is a fabulous chart!
Highly recommended!

l A Cappella ArrangingDeke Sharon & Dylan
Bell. The world loves to sing. From barbershop
groups to madrigal choirs to vocal rock bands,
there are tens of thousands of vocal groups in
America. The success of mainstream television
programs such as Glee and The Sing-Off not only
demonstrates the rising popularity of vocal music;
it reflects how current trends inspire others to join
in. In addition, through various online and on-the-
ground vocal music societies, the a cappella market
is well defined and well connected. Like singing
itself, a cappella is a global phenomenon. At the
heart of every vocal group is the music it performs.
This often means writing its own arrangements of
popular or traditional songs. This book is the long-
awaited definitive work on the subject, wide ranging
both in its scope and in its target audience - which
spans beginners, music students, and community
groups to professional and semi-professional
performers, vocal/instrumental songwriters,
composers, and producers - providing genre-
specific insight on a cappella writing.
