Many music educators directing vocal jazz ensembles have found that role thrust upon them. Either they're classically trained (and swing-challenged), or jazz instrumentalists with little or no choral music background. Dr. Steve Zegree understands this, and created this valuable book and CD to aid teachers who are trying to find their way in uncharted territory. His friendly writing style gets quickly to the vital basics teachers need: an overview of jazz styles, critical rehearsal techniques, the essence of jazz theory, improvisation, sound systems, choreography and movement. The appendix includes an invaluable list of other resources. The CD is a great aural guide to understanding how vocal jazz is different, and includes some very useful warm-ups to develop students' ears and rhythmic sense. (127 pp. 47:24 2001)
