Vocal Jazz
n In My LifeJohn Lennon & Paul McCartney/arr.
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."

t 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!

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.

n Jazz Talkin'Russell Robinson. This fun vocal-
jazz piece "talks" about the stylistic jazz vocal
idiom. Based on the twelve-bar blues form, it offers
variety and flexibility to sing call-and-response and
written-out scat solos, all supported by a solid piano
accompaniment which may be played as written or
ad lib with chord symbols. "Jazz talkin', jazz talkin',
doo ba doo bop!"

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!

t Love Is Here to Stayarr. Kirby Shaw. This is a
classic a cappella Kirby Shaw setting of a Gershwin
ballad. Love Is Here to Stay appeared, perhaps most
memorably, in the 1951 MGM picture "An American
in Paris," for which it served as the main theme.

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!

MoonglowWill Hudson, Eddie DeLange
& Irving Mills/arr. Meader. Here is vocal jazz

4t A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Squarearr.
Kirby Shaw. For over seven decades, this song,
written during World War II, has held an emotional
connection with music lovers for its nostalgic
longing for happier times. This a cappella
setting offers opportunities for building style and
technique to vocal jazz and concert choirs. Lush,
romantic and beautiful!

Old Devil Moonarr. Mac Huff. This show tune
has appealed to jazz musicians ever since it was first
heard in the score of "Finian's Rainbow," and it still
swings! "I look at you and suddenly, something in
your eyes I see, soon begins bewitching me. It's the
old devil moon..." With only twelve bars of written-
out ensemble scat singing, this steamy number is
not limited to vocal jazz groups. An extremely tasty
feature for your choir! Highly recommended!

l One for My Babyarr. Paris Rutherford. Bette
Midler sang this to Johnny Carson on his last show.
With a mature lyric, One for My Baby targets a
more mature ensemble, but the Johnny Mercer/
Harold Arlen standard is a classic for the ages!
This setting is brooding and bluesy, yet filled with
heartfelt emotion.

t One Hand, One HeartLeonard Bernstein &
Stephen Sondheim/arr. Kirby Shaw. Simple and

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

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!

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!

t 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 a fun Portuguese text combine to make
this a one-of-a-kind a cappella experience for your
choir and audience.

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.
