| A foggy day A house is not a home
All the things you are Almost like being in love
Am I blue? Anything goes
At last Autumn in New York
Autumn Leaves Beautiful love
Bewitched Black Coffee
Black Orpheus Blue Moon
Blue Skies Born under a bad sign
Bye bye blackbird Call me irresponsible
Cry me a river Day in day out
Days of wine and roses Don’t get around much anymore
Dream a little dream of me Embraceable you
Fever For once in my life
Girl from Ipanema Good morning heartache
Harlem nocturne How about you
How high the moon How insensitive
I could write a book I got rhythm
I say a little prayer I should care
It don’t mean a thing In a sentimental mood
Route 66 Satin Doll
The thrill is gone Moondance
My funny valentine Stormy Monday
