Some of the great vocal jazz arrangers and one of the greatest modern songwriters! "The Look Of Love" - A cool Latin groove and great vocal writing make this Zegree chart a real standout! "What The World Needs Now" - Opening with a soulful soprano sax, this setting moves into a jazz waltz and then a driving 4/4 groove, returning to the jazz waltz for the final vocal build on the lyric: for everyone! "I Say a Little Prayer" - Michele Weir has given this 1967 pop hit by Dionne Warwick a fresh treatment that is ideal for jazz, pop and concert choirs! Solo and group, cascading vocal phrases and a contemporary keyboard part add interest! "A House Is Not a Home" - Philip Lawson, former lead baritone and arranger for the King's Singers has used his experience and talents to set this powerful Burt Bacharach ballad for concert choirs. In the style of the Luther Vandross rendition, this is a powerful concert closer. "Alfie" - arranged by the acclaimed vocal jazz educator Phil Mattson, this song and text is among the most meaningful in contemporary music. Rich harmonies highlight the powerful emotions inherent in the text.

Burt Bacharach and Hal David's powerful ballad "A House Is Not a Home" was made famous by Dionne Warwick and recently showcased on Glee. Vocally challenging and full of deep emotion, this setting offers rich rewards for concert and pop groups. Now in an exciting a cappella setting of "Seize the Day". the showstopper from the award-winning composer Alan Menken, was featured in the Disney film and Broadway musical Newsies.

Surely one of the greatest songs of all time, "With a Song in My Heart" the Rodgers & Hart's classic romantic ballad, will produce warm smiles all around as you luxuriate in the lush harmonies of this superb a cappella arrangement. The beautiful song "It Only Takes a Moment" from Hello Dolly in a lush a cappella ballad setting!

Eagle Eye Media's Live In Montreux series continues with a travel through time to June 22, 1969, featuring a performance from The First Lady of Song, Ella Fitzgerald. Featuring fully restored Black and White footage and remixed audio in 5.1 and DTS, this program presents a stunning performance from one of the most versatile jazz singers of all time. After making a name for herself as the featured singer for Chick Webb's Orchestra in the late 1930's, she began appearing as part of Norman Granz' Jazz At The Philharmonic series. She fronted for Duke Ellington, where she learned her bop style and also began adding scat into her performances. Her recordings of standards and contemporary classics helped boost her career from the 1950's until her final recordings in 1992. Joining Fitzgerald in this performance are: Tommy Flanagan (piano), Frank de la Rosa (bass), and Ed Thigpen (drums).
