H The Nutcracker Suite (Nine-Movement Suite)
—arr. Strayhorn & Ellington/ed. Lindberg. This
authentic edition of Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker
Suite," as arranged in 1960 by Billy Strayhorn and
Duke Ellington, was assembled from the original
manuscripts held in the Strayhorn Repository
and the Ellington Collection of the Smithsonian
Institution's National Museum of American History.
For purposes of accuracy, the manuscripts were
cross-checked carefully with the original Duke
Ellington Orchestra recording. Edited by Jeff
Lindberg, this nine-movement suite is part of the
Jazz Legend Series.

Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer—Johnny
Marks/arr. Chris Sharp. Take your band on a tour
of musical styles as everyone's favorite Christmas
song gets a special treatment by arranger Chris
Sharp. Opening with a slow trumpet solo a la Harry
James, it soon breaks into an up-tempo swing that
will have everyone's toes tappin'! Then, it goes
alternating through rock, swing, and salsa styles
before it finally makes a big, bluesy, big-band
finish. Highly recommended!

Santa Baby—arr. Gordon Goodwin. In the hands
of master arranger and composer Gordon Goodwin,
this often-recorded Christmas novelty becomes a
holiday tour de force for big bands. It's a shuffle
at about 135 bpm with the melody played by bass
trombone! More features include a sax soli, optional
piccolo in alto 2, and the lead trumpet range is up to
written high G. Add in a few modulations with solo
space provided for altos 1 and 2, tenors 1 and 2,
trumpet 4, and trombones and you have a swingin',
fun, and clever chart in every way!

We Three Kings—arr. Chris Sharp. Chris Sharp's
jazz waltz version of this Christmas classic makes
a powerful jazz statement at any holiday concert.
Featuring a written or ad-lib tenor solo before an
epic stop-time ensemble section from the band,
this chart has plenty of excitement in store for the
listener. The brass really gets a chance to wail on
the melody to bring this chart to big ending. Play
some jazz on your holiday concert!

4 We Wish You a Merry Christmas—arr. Rich
Woolworth. This chart begins with a simple, unison
opening statement giving way to a grandiose
chorale setting before settling into an accessible
Basie-style swing groove. There's a tenor solo, a
quick re-statement of the melody, and suddenly
it goes to an up-tempo, double-time jazz feel. As
quickly as it began, it returns to the chorale setting
for a big finish. Wish your audiences a "Merry
Christmas" with this chart that will be the perfect
holiday concert closer!
