A Must-Have for Vocal Jazz Coaches
This is an exceptional resource for anyone coaching vocal jazz ensembles. The detailed instruction on directing, combined with standard repertoire, is incredibly useful. The arrangements clearly support the vocal lines, focusing on nuanced voice-leading and harmonic integrity, rather than just doubling. The breadth of material serves both novice groups and those seeking to refine their sound. A comprehensive guide for vocal excellence.

Solid Collection of Vocal Jazz Standards
As a working musician, I appreciate the practical depth of this book. The selection of jazz standards is great for general gigs and the instructional content helps fine-tune ensemble dynamics. Assuming clear lead sheets and chord symbols for the vocal parts, it’s a time-saver. The online audio samples are helpful for quick learning, making preparation efficient for rehearsals or performances.

Fun & Accessible for Aspiring Jazz Singers!
I've always wanted to explore vocal jazz, and this book by Paris Rutherford makes it so enjoyable. It breaks down the process beautifully, and the famous jazz standards included are a joy to learn. The best part is the online audio with PLAYBACK+. I can slow down the examples and practice at my own pace, making these sophisticated arrangements feel totally achievable for a weekend musician!
