The score and parts for this and 60 or more Ellington transcribed recordings are available from jalc (dot) org in the Education section. Look for Essentially Ellington.

Of course Jump For Joy was written for the short-lived stage production of the same name. The song has nothing to do with WWII, its beginning, it's middle, or its end. Don't be confused that the song and the war have any connection except for the same era.
