| A–Z of jazz standards and tunes |
This is an A–Z list of jazz tunes which have been covered by multiple jazz artists. It includes the more popular jazz standards, lesser-known or minor standards, and many other songs and compositions which may have entered a jazz musician's or jazz singer's repertoire or be featured in the Real Books, but may not be performed as regularly or as widely as many of the popular standards.
Entries in italics are alternative titles for songs that appear elsewhere on the list. Songs are listed alphabetically, omitting any articles such as "the". In the credits of each song, composers are listed before lyricists, and the year of first publication is given where possible.
