(4 a cap, Weihn) Easily transportable for carorling or other programming options, this doo-wop style a cappella setting of this holiday favorite will be first on everyone\'s list
(2) Introduce your younger choirs to the music of Harold Arlen with this \'must-sing\' jazz arrangement by Steve Zegree. Whether you use the notated scat section, or let your singers improvise, your choir will love it
(4) the 1944 hit version, performed by Johnny Mercer and the Pied Pipers, with the Paul Weston Orchestra. The arrangement is scored for full big band, vocal solo and four piece vocal backing group. The chart also works fine without the backing singers, as we have cross-cued their lines into the Trombone parts. Alto 1 doubles Clarinet in the opening verse, but aside from this there are no other sax doubles. The vocal key is F throughout. Another fine transcription from Alan Glasscock.
After you\'ve gone - Jazz Ensemble Library Series. Arranged here in a Basie-style slow swing setting, this well-crafted chart starts out as a study in ensemble writing with the brass in buckets and the drums on brushes. Later there is a solo for trumpet followed by a shout chorus where the full band really lets loose. Quality writing for contests and festivals
(4 a cap & solo) inspired a cappella treatment of the \"Fats\" Waller classic! Many fun options in the center section - \"Rudy Vallee\" solo, tap solo, etc. Totally unique
(3) young jazz vocalist Renee Olstead recorded this song from the Roaring Twenties featured in the popular film Kit Kittredge: An American Girl. Your choirs will love the razz-a-ma-tazz of this fun number with the timeless message to keep up your spirits even when things are not going your way
(Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra) (Professional Editions) Abene\'s unique and creative style is in full force with this powerhouse version of Sonny Rollins\' great tune. Michael\'s chart was originally recorded by the GRP All-Star Big Band and he has rescored it here for full jazz ensemble. The beginning is angular and striking but slips effortlessly into a roaring swing chart. Woodwind doubles are required (flute and soprano sax).
