First Snow—Anthony O'Toole. This whimsical
and spirited work was inspired by the painting
Skating in Central Park by American artist
Agnes Tait. Depicting the park in late afternoon,
carefree skaters and sledders enjoy their winter
activities against the backdrop of the Manhattan
skyline. This work evokes that magical feeling,
wistful nostalgia, and holiday cheer that begins
with the first glimpse of white snow and icicles
hanging from the window in the cold morning.
An original tone poem that's sure to become a
yearly staple in your winter concerts.

chorale version of Greensleeves, closing
with an arrangement of We Three Kings that
features a Middle Eastern flavor.

Good King Salsa—Ed Kiefer. Based on the
carol Good King Wenceslas, this work explores
a basic Latin style. This setting features your
percussion section which can be expanded or
limited to fit your group. Alternating between

back, this piece involves everyone with the
melody. Your students and audiences will
really love this holiday selection!

The Great Jingle Bell Chase—Traditional/
arr. Jon Bubbett. The Great Jingle Bell Chase
conjures images of Santa Claus running behind
on Christmas Eve and desperately trying to
deliver all the presents before the sun comes
up! The piece is a combination of "Jingle Bells"
at the beginning and "The Hallelujah Chorus"
at the end. Fast paced and furious, this high-
energy piece will leave you out of breath!

Hanukkah Dance (Sevivon)—arr. Matt
Conaway. The well-known Jewish folk song

abrupt ending, leaving the audience breathless!

Haunted Sleigh Ride (based on "Jingle Bells")
—James Lord Pierpont/arr. Brian Beck. This
work is based on Jingle Bells but in a minor
key, transforming a winter favorite into an eerie
adventure into the snowy unknown. We may
not be "laughing all the way"! This setting is
jam-packed with various style and dynamic
markings as well as accidentals in every
part - challenging musicians and engaging
audiences. Spooky!

The Holly and the Ivy—arr. Ed Kiefer. With
clarinets not crossing the break, unison
low brass and woodwind parts, supportive
percussion, and a familiar melody, this holiday
selection sounds a lot harder than it really
is. Using different compositional techniques
including bell tones, an easy round, elongation
of the melody, a staccato presentation,
and percussion part featuring tenor drum,
tambourine, and sleigh bells, this holiday
classic has never sounded better.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas—arr.

all the "Whos" down in "Whoville!" Lots of fun!

Imani—Sean O'Loughlin. Imani, which means
faith, is the seventh day of Kwanzaa, the African
and African-American celebration of family and
culture. This challenging and colorful piece
rises from its quiet chant-like opening (involving
part of the band singing the "Imani" tune) to a
sonorous major climax at measure 51. The
faster section that follows makes brilliant use
of an enlarged percussion section that includes
a number of assorted instruments (Log drums,
Congas, Claves, et. al.) This is a terrific
multicultural selection that will have many uses
for holiday programs and contest performances.

In the Bleak Midwinter—Gustav Holst/arr.
Smith. With broad, expansive strokes, yet
with great sensitivity and taste, Robert Smith

beautiful Holst melody. From a haunting single
voice, a stunning climax is reached before
giving way to a simple restatement. This is a
deeply moving, emotional work for concert
band, an ideal choice for winter and holiday
concerts, and we recommend it very highly!
