Brian Tate : Java Jazz

Coffee keeps me buzzin' all day long. Gotta have a cup of coffee! Sound familiar? These and other java phrases are the basis for this jazzy swing number. Fun vocal rhythms, jazzy harmonies, and individual part-singing help your choir make the scene with the bean and create a wonderfully jittery performance! Available: SAB; StudioTrax CD.
