emotional and reflective work paints a poignant
picture of the holiday season as seen through
the eyes of a homeless person on a street
corner. The juxtaposition of the melodies
Ukrainian Bell Carol and Greensleeves paint
a picture of a lonely person who is eventually
joined by others. A stunning and unique work
that brings awareness to the holidays and the
true spirit of giving.

Troika (from "Lieutenant Kije")—Sergei
Prokofiev/arr. Stephen Wieloszynski. This
charming number takes its name from a
Russian sleigh called a "troika," pulled by three
horses and common in wintertime. The melody
is really quite familiar, bright and bouncy as it
evokes the sleigh. Parts are carefully edited for
school age players, and many techniques are
included, but can be omitted if too hard. Optional
percussion parts are included. This would be a
great choice for a wintertime concert!

changes, and even a minor mode. An excellent
piece for developing the full range of your
orchestral musicians and giving the audience
a unique listening experience.

The Wexford Carol—Traditional Irish Carol/
arr. Katie O'Hara LaBrie. This traditional Irish
carol opens with a solo for cello or violin (or soli
for both) over a distant drone. The tune weaves
throughout each section amidst beautiful
countermelodies and simple meter changes.
After a glorious key change, the music moves
to a delicate close. An optional harp part adds
color. The Wexford Carol, arranged by Katie
O'Hara LaBrie, is guaranteed to be a stunning
addition to your winter program or any time of
year. (4:00)

What Child Is This?—arr. Jeffrey Turner.
A fresh and very creative reimaging of
this timeless Christmas classic that is a
delightful departure from the typical holiday
arrangements. Very colorful chromatic
harmony along with two key changes create
an original, mature, and engaging sound that
gives players many great opportunities to
reinforce a variety of fingering patterns. The
first half also gives players experience with con
sordino. An optional bell part adds a beautiful
veil of color.

Winter Solstice—Todd Parrish. This great-
selling work describes the wonder and
adventure of the winter season. Exciting eighth-

part is particularly interesting and challenging.
