Jay Althouse has put together a trio of jazz tunes for young choirs. It opens with a light swing number, followed by a traditional vocal jazz ballad, and closes with a tight, up tempo chart reminiscent of Route 66. Written specifically as teaching songs, these pieces are perfect for training your group in classic jazz styles. Nostalgically authentic; it's as if each of the short standards were written by Count Basie himself. Three great teaching tools for the price of one! SoundTrax features a professionally recorded jazz combo.

Composer: Jay Althouse
