Things to consider
Start by checking voicing availability for your ensemble size: SATB works for four-part mixed choirs, while SAB gives you flexibility with smaller groups or limited male singers. Piano accompaniments are included with these octavos, so verify your format choice (printed book versus PDF download) based on Kirby Shaw and Pam Wedgwood both bring strong rhythmic sensibility to jazz and blues idioms, so their arrangements tend to engage singers quickly even at early intermediate level.
