CHRISTMAS & HOLIDAY medium to advanced
H Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!—Jule
Styne/arr. Gordon Goodwin. In the style of Basie
and Hefti, this Gordon Goodwin adaptation of the
wonderful holiday classic is set in a medium swing
style. Not a drum showcase, but the drummer has
plenty of solo space beginning on brushes, then to
sticks as the intensity rises. There is a flute part on
second alto (can be omitted) and a percussion part
for vibes. The optional solo space is for alto, tenor,
trumpet, trombone, and the lead trumpet range is
to written high E. A great sax section soli rounds out
this excellent chart. This one is so nice, you'll want
to play it year 'round! Highly recommended!

H
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!—Jule
Styne/arr. Alan Baylock. This swinging holiday
arrangement is a slightly easier version of the
chart that Alan Baylock did for the USAF Airmen
of Note. It features the saxes in a "four brothers"
setting with written solo space provided for each
of the five saxes if desired. The lead trumpet range
is to written B above the staff and there are parts
included for optional expanded instrumentations.
Here's a Christmas chart with substance!

H
The Little Drummer Boy—arr. Rob Holmes.
Here's a very clever arrangement of this holiday
gem! It's a drum set on brushes feature at
around 172 bpm in the style of Hefti's Cute with
a written or ad lib trumpet 2 solo. There's tons of
nice ensemble work and a lead trumpet range up
to written A above the staff. A nice sax soli and a
unison interlude complete this Christmas package!

(Not So) Silent Night—arr. Mike Collins-Dowden.
A not so silent night? You bet! This half-time swing/
funk arrangement takes Silent Night and gives
the familiar tune a funky twist. With its infectious
groove, killer harmonies, and dynamic twists and
turns, this one will be a favorite. Be sure to check
out the horns-only call-and-response section and
the optional parts that are included for expanded
instrumentation. The solo section features some
improvised solos for any instrument, and there is a
suggested scale sheet in every part to help soloists
be successful. It will be a (Not So) Silent Night at
your holiday concert!

H The Nutcracker 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.

H
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!

H 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!

Tis the Season to Be Funky—arr. Doug Beach
& George Shutack. Bring the holidays on in a funky
fashion with this medley of Christmas classics!
The funky groove will have everyone tapping their
feet or even dancing in the aisles! Familiar tunes,
solid voicings, and written or improvised solo
space all add up to a medley that will be the hit
of your holiday program. Everything desired in an
accessible holiday chart!

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 restatement 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!
10881482 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . . .M 50.00
We Wish You a Merry Christmas—arr. Rich
DeRosa. Here is a sensational arrangement for your
Christmas jazz concert. The arrangement features
a great deal of beautifully constructed lines that
sweep through the music. The counterpoint and
the ensemble writing are thrilling without a doubt.
Solo space is provided for piano and guitar, or it
could easily be assigned elsewhere. The ending
is terrific, full of cascading figures and gorgeous
chords. You will be happy to have this in your
library for yearly performances!

What Child Is This?—arr. Rich DeRosa. Rich
DeRosa continues to amaze with his creative
arrangements of traditional Christmas songs.
This time, he has incorporated the legendary
Wayne Shorter classic Footprints into this
Christmas favorite and the result is nothing short
of spectacular! There are written melody solos
for both alto saxophone and trombone with an
extended improvised alto sax solo that soars to a
climatic finish. Doubles include flute for tenor sax
1 and flugelhorns for trumpets. Real jazz for your
holiday performances!
10999308 Jazz Ensemble . . . . . . . .MA 55.00
Winter Wonderland—arr. Jack Cooper. This one
is a creative and swinging chart on a wonderful
holiday standard with optional written solos for
tenor sax, trumpet or trombone. It features a big
shout chorus, sax section solis and a lead trumpet
range that goes to written A above the staff (optional
Bb). Quick to prepare and an effective holiday chart,
it swings all the way!
