A "toe-tappin" down home gospel swinger written by Benny Carter, with lyrics by Jon Hendricks. This is a great festival/concert opener! SATB with written out parts for rhythm section.

A vocal adaptation of the Basie Band's Count 'Em, this arrangement features three vocalese solos performed by three females (or by two females and a male soloist). With powerful dynamic changes, "horn" hits and a swinging shout section, this is classic Basie. SATB (soprano require a high Bb) with rhythm.

(Level III) Written by E.Y. "Yip" Harburg and Vernon Duke. With a special thanks to Count Basie, this one can really cook! A different beginning with the Basie "One more time!" shout chorus, then a modulation back to the first verse. An open spot for a vocal or instrumental solo, then it’s back to Bill Basie for the famous repeat finish.
