Jazz & Standards Piano/Vocal Sheet Music

Teachers return often to Cole Porter: The Platinum Collection and Nat "King" Cole: Unforgettable for their breadth and accuracy. Vocal Complete: Female Voice Jazz Standards pairs sheet music with online audio, useful for singers building confidence in the idiom. Take Five by The Dave Brubeck Quartet and At Last by Harry Warren round out the standards every jazz pianist should know.

Sheila Clagg Cathey's Homage to Oscar Peterson adds fresh interpretive material for pianists studying Peterson's harmonic language and touch.

Cole Porter wrote some of the twentieth century's most durable melodies, and his Platinum Collection gathers his best work in a single resource. His sophisticated harmonies and witty lyrics define the Great American Songbook.

George Gershwin and Johnny Mercer represent two pillars of American song: Gershwin's instrumental brilliance and Mercer's lyrical craft. The Best of George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin shows why these compositions endure, while Mercer's Day In Day Out demonstrates his gift for memorable, singable lines.

Tony Bennett and Ray Charles brought interpretive depth to standards, each bending the form to their own artistry. Bennett's Don't Get Around Much Anymore exemplifies his phrasing and emotional directness; Ray Charles's approach to harmony and rhythm reshaped how singers approached the form.
