Confide in Me, by Jennifer Barnes
(Level 3) Originally performed by the Manhattan Transfer (on The Offbeat of Avenues), this is a bluesey, romping solo feature for one or several of your killer tenor soloists. Ensemble vocalists get to have fun in a mostly background vocal role throughout. This will sound especially strong with synthesized B-3 organ part and/or electric guitar. A great way to close a program! SSATB with rhythm section.

Gingerbread Boy (Salsa), by Jennifer Barnes
(Level IV) Two charts of different styles and difficulty levels are available on this infectious, wordless Jimmy Heath blues melody. The salsa arrangement is a terrific, accessible vehicle for improvisation as well. The salsa style will challenge the singers with the linear melody and background figures. It also has very moderate range requirements for both men and women. SSATB with rhythm section.

I'm Old Fashioned, by Jennifer Barnes

An unusual feature of this chart is the "trading" in the improv section between ensemble vocals and one or mutiple improvisers to help make the challenging chord progression more approachable. SSATB with rhythm section.

My Funny Valentine, by Jennifer (Shelton) Barnes
(Level 3) A beautiful feature that can be split up between several soloists or just one outstanding vocalist. Pretty and harmonically interesting background vocals by the other three parts throughout, and an a cappella rubato section to feature the voices on the second time through the bridge. Not too difficult to learn, but definitely rewarding to sing and appealing to all audiences! SSAA with rhythm section.

Ooh-Whee (The Carnival), by Jennifer Barnes
(Level 4) Funky, very fun chart for women as performed by Patti Austin (on Love is Gonna Getcha), with contrasting Latin-ish pop, funk and salsa feels. There are three verses of lead solo vocals for one or several soloists to share and a funk chorus that rocks! The background and ensemble vocals have some challenging moments but are lots of fun to sing. Your rhythm section needs to be able to read notes and chord changes as well as being ready to get funky! SSAA with rhythm section including percussion.
