Ella Fitzgerald is considered by many to be the greatest scat singer of all time. Scat singing is a style of improvising a melodic line using made-up syllables or sounds that often imitate the style of instrumental performers.

Think of this piece as a little two-part invention. The left hand should be quiet and basically legato against the right hand, which plays a melodic variation of the tune "Mary Had a Little Lamb".

Played on piano by KitTeng Ho.

A Christmas Tingle

This jazz waltz standard written by an American jazz trombonist named Frank Rosolino might seem timid and harmless at first glance, something that any beginner jazz musician could just sight read through it. However, there is more to this tune than just an ordinary jazz standard.

The most noticeable unique element that sets "Blue Daniel" aside from other jazz standards is the unusual 14 bars in 3/4 time instead of the usual 12 bars or 32 bars in 4/4 time, which makes it a challenge to keep track of the form when it comes to the solo section as there is a tendency to customize the ind to the usual 12 bars per head form. The numerous ii-V chord progressions in the tune compensates for the irregularity caused by the unusual number of bars in a form, giving the tune a sense of stability and providing the listeners something more familiar to follow.
