Go, Swing It on the Mountain—arr. Peter Blair.
Opening with an eight-measure brass chorale,
the chart settles into a laid-back swing groove
that shows off all the sections of the band. Clever
harmony surrounds the familiar melody, giving it
a fresh sound. The brass chorale returns later,
setting up the imaginative modulation that takes
the chart out.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas—arr.
Victor Lopez. What a gorgeous holiday ballad! A
solo trumpet eases into the tune, followed by lush
lines in all the sections. This perennial favorite
is right on the money, with very playable parts,
modest ranges, and tasty solos for trumpet and
tenor sax. Highly recommended!

Hot Chocolate (from "The Polar Express")—
Alan Silvestri/arr. Mike Lewis. A fun swinger in a
jump style, Hot Chocolate is hot stuff! It's loaded
with energy and has been skillfully adapted for
the young player. There are no solos, the ranges
are modest, and a driving bass line makes it
move along. To make this chart flexible for all
year, the arranger offers two endings: one with a
clever and effective modulation to a Jingle Bells
quote and one without. Highly recommended!

Jingle Bells Ragtime March—arr. Tim Waters.
This ragtime treatment of Jingle Bells is a great
option for groups adding a last-minute tune to their
holiday concert. With a laid-back Dixieland groove,
this tune is easy to work up in a hurry. There are
no solos in this chart, but all the sections get a turn
playing the melody.

Light the Way (Bring a Torch, Jeanette,
Isabella)—arr. Peter Blair. Set as a light jazz waltz,

featured throughout, with plenty of melodic material
for everyone.
