Appropriate for concert choirs as well as show and
jazz groups.

Jasperse. Greg Jasperse meets The Beatles in
this warm, relaxed arrangement, giving the song
some harmonic embellishments that are chorally
beautiful. A strong choice for graduation or any
other occasion, it has a great lyric that conveys a
timeless message. "...But of all these friends and
lovers, there is no one compares with you, and
these mem'ries lose their meaning , when I think of
love as something new...In my life, I love you more."

lt It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That
Swing)Irving Mills & Duke Ellington/arr. Anders
Edenroth. This challenging a cappella arrangement
captures all the energy and pizzazz of Duke
Ellington's original. It opens with the seldom-heard
verse, in rubato tempo, then the bright swing tempo
kicks in, and it's an exciting ride to the end. There's
not a dull moment!

n It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That
Swing)Duke Ellington/arr. Emerson. If your
young vocal jazz group is ready to experience the
great music of Duke Ellington, turn them loose
on this arrangement. There are only eight bars
of unison ensemble scat singing, and only four
repeated bars of vocal harmony, so the essential
syncopated figures should be easy for your students
to learn.

James Bond Themearr. Jay Althouse. Using
"Ba da da da" and "Dum da ba dum dum" syllables
over a solid accompaniment, Jay has created an
incredibly exciting choral tapestry of the famous
"James Bond" movie theme, which was first
heard in the soundtrack of the movie "Dr. No." For
concert choirs and vocal jazz groups, this is not to
be missed! Highly recommended!

n 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.

Linus and LucyVince Guaraldi/arr. Roger
Emerson. From the opening strains, everyone will
recognize Vince Guaraldi's jazzy theme as featured
in the popular animated Peanuts television specials.
This well-crafted accompanied arrangement
includes "scat" lyrics above the familiar
piano groove. This is essential programming
during the holidays or any other time of year!
Highly recommended!

Ht Linus and LucyVince Guaraldi/arr. Kern. This is
amazingly cool! It's the famous jazz piano piece by
Vince Guaraldi, as heard on the animated Peanuts
television specials, arranged with "dah dah dot"
syllables for a cappella voices! Every a cappella
choir will want to do this, at Christmas or any other
time of year. Highly recommended!

Love Is Here to StayGeorge & Ira Gershwin/
arr. Mark Hayes. This is Mark Hayes at his finest
- his arrangement of the classic Gershwin ballad is
simply stunning! The piano accompaniment carries
the voices on a sentimental journey from the lush
opening to the light swing ending, making this a
top choice for vocal jazz groups or concert choirs.
The song is probably best known from its use in the
soundtrack of "An American in Paris."

t Moon River (from "Breakfast At Tiffany's")
arr. Steve Zegree. Absolutely stunning! This
dreamy setting of Henry Mancini's standard is
a superb opportunity to develop technical skills,
blend, phrasing and style with your group. But more
than that, it's music of extraordinary quality that just
begs to be sung - and heard - particularly due to
the top-notch arrangement by Steve Zegree. This is
what a cappella vocal jazz is all about, and we give
it our highest recommendation!

n MoonglowWill Hudson, Eddie DeLange & Irving

4t My One and Only Lovearr. Paris Rutherford.
Many great jazz singers and instrumentalists have
performed and recorded this old standard, including
Frank Sinatra. It lends itself beautifully to a cappella
choral singing in this textured arrangement. From
full homophonic harmonies to solo lines with vocal
accompaniment, this setting is a gem.
10503385 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95
Old MacDonaldarr. Roger Emerson. This
childhood favorite makes an exciting, super-fast
vocal jazz showcase for younger choirs. Inspired
by Ella Fitzgerald, the vocal lines are easy, making
it a great vehicle for developing jazz inflection and
style. Complete with a kick-line ending, this will
also have tremendous appeal as a fun novelty
number! Highly recommended!

lt Once Upon a Timearr. Paul Langford. "Once
upon a time a boy with moonlight in his eyes..." This
rich a cappella setting of the love ballad from the
1962 show "All American" is equally appropriate
for jazz, show, and concert choirs. "...but somehow,
that once upon a time never comes again."

t One Hand, One HeartLeonard Bernstein &
Stephen Sondheim/arr. Kirby Shaw. Simple and
elegant, this a cappella choral setting of Tony

captures the beauty and depth of the original, but
with a gentle jazz feeling that will bring warmth and
intimacy to every performance!

arr. Roger Emerson. Introduce your students
to the smooth sounds of Brazilian jazz with this
quintessential bossa nova tune, made famous by
the great jazz saxophonist Stan Getz. The melody is

very impressive!

t Pass Me the JazzAnders Edenroth. This is
extremely cool! Written for the famous Swedish vocal
quintet The Real Group, it's a terrific showcase for
better vocal jazz ensembles. Up-tempo all the way, it
features clever lyrics, ensemble scat singing, and an
awesome walking bass line that could be played by a
string bass. "Let's spice it up, let's amplify it. I didn't
come for peace and quiet. Heat it up, it's time to fry
it. Put me on a jazzy diet!" Highly recommended!
10276436 SATBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25
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!
