Collaboration is an album by American jazz trumpeter Shorty Rogers and German pianist André Previn released on the RCA Victor label in 1955.

Allmusic noted "Shorty Rogers and Andre Previn split the arranging chores in a somewhat competitive fashion. Rogers arranges a standard and then that is followed by a Previn original based on the same chord structure. This procedure is followed until the halfway point of the date when they reverse roles. ...the result is a dead heat with some fine swinging solos".

All compositions by André Previn except where noted.
