If you're new to this catalog, I think you'll find it very easy to find the sheet music that works just right for your jazz, a cappella or traditional choir.

 FEATURES OF THIS WEBSITE

• Each of the 160-plus titles featured on this site has a full-length studio demo recording of the arrangement, which you'll receive free with every "Digital Sheet Music Pack" order.
• Part learning audio aids called "Part Tracks" and "Minus-One Tracks" help your students get past the note-learning stage and get ready to make real music in rehearsal much sooner than without. (Click here for more detailed info about these tracks)
• Rhythm Tracks for the accompanied charts allow you to rehearse along with the accompaniment tracks from the demo, preparing your singers for the real thing and letting you step away from the piano to focus more on their singing.
• An advanced filtering system allows you to narrow down your search of the catalog for just what you need for your group. When you're ready, head over to the Full Catalog and check the boxes on the left side of the page to more quickly get to what you really need.
• You can also search for a specific title using the magnifying glass search tool in the menu at the top of the page.  

THE MUSIC

• The stylistic tendency of the arrangements featured here is deliberately "modern", which really connects with students. While many of the titles come from the past 30 years (or so) of popular music, the harmonic and rhythmic content is nearly always informed by contemporary instrumental jazz, resulting in a unique, exciting and diverse catalog.
• Even the most complex charts are written with students in mind; Great attention is paid to optimal voice-leading and accurate, clean notation.
• The voicings listed (SSATB, etc) are always meant to indicate the MAXIMUM number of ensemble part splits that happen in the chart. Keep in mind that even though a chart is listed as SSAAATTBaB, it's likely that a good portion of the chart (especially when accompanied by rhythm section) is written with fewer parts, so the chart may not be as dense and complex as the voicing may make it seem. 

DIFFICULTY LEVELS

• Level 1: No level 1 charts are currently available at KerryMarsh.com, however, in principle, we would consider a level 1 chart to be best for elementary students. They might be entirely unison charts, perhaps with some two-part writing.
• Level 2: Also known here as STARTER SERIES Charts, and useable by most junior high groups and many beginning high school ensembles. These charts are written to sound more advanced than they really are, though, and collegiate and community groups have also had success with these in performance! 
• Level 3: The writing is aimed at high school groups. Rhythms may become more complex here, although the demos and Part Tracks help the students get past those hurdles. The harmonic content may get more advanced, with some dissonant vertical writing, however, the voice-leading into those chords is handled with great care. 
• Level 4: This level is aimed at fairly advanced high school groups and most collegiate groups. The difficulty is just below what professional groups tend to write for themselves, and a wide array of interesting options are available for harmonic and rhythmic content. 
• Level 5: These charts contain the largest amount of material to learn, relative to the other levels, whether that's high complexity, more actual music to learn, extra-challenging rhythm section parts, or all of the above and more! These charts are at a professional level, although I've heard many advanced high school and collegiate groups wow their audiences with some level 5 music!
• Half-levels (3.5, etc.): It's just what you'd think...we made the subjective call that that chart fell squarely in between two of the above levels and didn't really seem to solidly be one or the other. 

PURCHASING
