Jingle Freakin' Bells—Matthew Montgomery.
Buckle your seat belts! This is a high-octane,
punk-rock rendition of a Christmas classic. Your
guitar player can bring out all his pedals and your
tenor sax soloist can go crazy. Jingle Bells is the
featured melody, but see if you can find all the
other hidden gems in Jingle Freakin' Bells.

Joy to the World—arr. Rich DeRosa. Rich
DeRosa once again provides us with his clever
take on one of the most popular Christmas carols,
Joy to the World. As arranged for the WDR Big
Band, DeRosa sets this traditional tune in a
zydeco feel that provides an entertaining journey
from beginning to end. Focusing entirely on the
ensemble, there is no improvisation in this chart.
Rather, DeRosa builds and builds the ensemble
through creative rhythms, harmonies, key
changes, and grooves. This will be an absolute
crowd favorite!

A Kenton Christmas Revisited—arr. Bob
Curnow. The brilliant arrangements done for the
Stan Kenton Orchestra by Ralph Charmichael
have been adapted into a medley of fresh,
modern versions containing Angels We Have
Heard on High; The Holly and the Ivy; O
Tannenbaum and Good King Wenceslas. He then
arranged these wonderful carols for standard big
band instrumentation (five saxophones, four
trumpets, four trombones, piano, guitar, bass
and drums). 5-4-4-4

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!

(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!

Santa Baby—arr. Roger Holmes. Originally
recorded by Eartha Kitt in the 1950s, this clever
and cute holiday favorite has also been recorded
by a wide variety of artists in addition to being
featured in the movie "Elf." This medium swing
arrangement is a natural for vocal solo with jazz
band and is sure to be a highlight of any holiday
concert. Highly recommended! Vocal in E-flat.

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!

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!
