Porgy and Bess songbook.
Here are detailed backing tracks for a specific Porgy and Bess piano/vocal songbook distributed by Hal Leonard for Alfred: HL00322142 (2009), currently available from Amazon. I did my best to get iRP to Playback the 12 very detailed song arrangements as closely as possible to the book's charts.

Hi, David-
I'm a bit gunshy now regarding the Keys I've indicated. My usual, albeit primative, procedure is to note the key signature and figure, e.g., "Two flats, so it's either B flat major or G minor," then I look to see if the final note or chord is one or the other of those, and go with that. So, if you find reason to consider the key of any of my postings as something else, please correct me, okay.
Jack
