"Just the Way You Are" - Billy Joel's pop hit from 1978 receives a fresh and contemporary treatment in this a cappella setting, with melodic lines seamlessly moving from part to part within a light vocal texture that will challenge your pop/jazz singers to perform at peak level! "A Groovy Kind of Love" - From the king'singers' album Circle of Life comes this great 1966 pop song that was covered by Phil Collins in the '80s. "Bring Back That Leroy Brown" - For a novelty change-of-pace, this song by Queen's Freddie Mercury is arranged by Philip Lawson. Fun and funny, your group will love to perform it and your audience will be entertained. "Rosanna" - Toto's 1982 pop hit in a colorful a cappella setting with beatbox vocals and fun triadic harmonies. A great showcase for a pop ensemble or larger concert group!

St. Paul, MN-based 3-woman, 2-man jazz quintet Voice Trek has a rich, clean, poised sound, and arrangements that can turn very familiar tunes like the Beatles' "Ticket to Ride," Dave Brubeck's jazz anthem "Take Five," Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" and Michel LeGrand's "Windmills of Your Mind" and turn them into new songs, unexpectedly tasty musical treats. There's a spirited, sassy cover of Rossini's "William Tell Overture" that would have the Swingles looking over their shoulders, Sinatra's "Fly Me To The Moon" becomes a (lightly accompanied) scattish, salsa romp, and Toto's "Rosanna" is a finger-snapping winner, as is Brazilian composer Manfredo Fest's energetic "That's What She Says." A bonus track, "America the Beautiful," was included "after the tremendous response from the a cappella community when they performed it at the West Coast Summit!" 11 songs, each a many-faceted gem. "An A cappella Trek," Voice Trek's 5th recording, is a joy from beginning to end, one of the best Vocal Jazz CDs we've heard this year!

Songlist: That's What She Says, Ticket To Ride, Take Five, Both Sides Now, The William Tell Overture, A Little Luck, Fly Me to the Moon, The Windmills of Your Mind, Rosanna, America, The Beautiful
