Vocal Jazz
4 It Had to Be Youarr. Greg Gilpin. A charming
swing-infused standard, first published in 1924,
that has been recorded by a wide variety of hit-
makers including Ray Charles, Tony Bennett,
Michael Buble and Carrie Underwood. Perfect for
school concert choirs as well as show choirs and
community choirs, these quickly learned choral
parts feature plenty of unison and two-part singing
with the melody shared between the voice parts,
along with short solo opportunities that make this
an easy vocal jazz feature to learn and perform.
Highly recommended!

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.

4 Jazz KyrieAndy Beck. Here's a quintessential
bossa nova on just three Latin words from the
Kyrie mass text. Bossa nova is a musical genre
that began in Brazil in the 1950s that consists of
the combination of samba rhythms, jazz sonorities,
and lyrical melodies to create a new, sophisticated
style. Optional flute and/or vibraphone (available
free online) adds another smooth layer to this hip
contemporary choral that offers a traditional sacred
text in a fresh, surprising setting.
