Jingle Through the Night—arr. Mekel Rogers.
What happens during the holidays after all the
children go to sleep? The elves come out to party
through the night! Several holiday favorites are
reimagined in minor modes, giving the usually jolly
tunes a darker, midnight feel. A variety of changes
in style and dynamics throughout the work enhance
the effect. The low strings get a turn at the melody.
Consider adding sleigh bells or even haunting
sound effects to heighten the mood.

musician, the composer has created this amazing
medley of classic Christmas tunes with a mariachi
twist! A perfect introduction to the huapango,
joropo, and son jalisciense rhythms played by
mariachi groups all across Mexico and the United
States, this arrangement will make a wonderful
addition to your next winter or holiday concert.

Merry Wayfaring Stranger (Poor Wayfaring
Stranger, Patapan, God Rest Ye Merry,

Wayfaring Stranger" with the likes of "God Rest Ye
Merry, Gentlemen" and "Patapan." This will be the
star of your next holiday program!

patterns, all while staying in first position. Be sure
to use the included percussion and train whistle to
make the journey come alive.

Pine Tree Polka—Erica Donahoe. This clever
work uses the popular Christmas carols Jingle
Bells and Up on the Housetop as a backdrop.

out from behind the pine branches like ornaments.

with this one!

Polar Vortex—Katie O'Hara LaBrie. Cold air spins
and an arctic chill sets in: a polar vortex has
arrived. This work for multilevel orchestra
encapsulates this wintery weather phenomenon
through its driving D dorian tune, biting spiccato,
and swirling motives. Perform the A parts (Grade
3) on their own, or add in multiple levels to include
even your youngest beginners.

Santa the Barbarian—Randall Standridge.
Ho! Ho! Hurraaaaagh! The jolly old elf from the
North Pole gets an aggressive makeover in this
wonderfully tongue-in-cheek work. Beginning with
narration in the style of a movie trailer, Santa is
reimagined as a warrior from the winter wastelands
as Up on the Housetop; Jingle Bells and Jolly Old
St. Nicholas are given a barbaric twist. Sure to be
the hit of your next winter concert!
11521162 String Orchestra. . . . . . . . . . . . . 55.00
Short Ride in a Fast Sled—Sarah Siegler. A nod
to John Adams' well-known Short Ride in a Fast
Machine for your winter concert. It presents a neat
opportunity for directors to show John Adams'
famous work to their students, as the two pieces
share several key elements: constant woodblock,
minimalism, and repetitive dissonant ostinato
patterns. After the patterns (including sleigh bells!)
set the scene, a spirited holiday melody shows a
fast sled ready to move. Quotes from Deck the
Halls are dusted throughout, and all sections have
melodic and interesting parts to play. Fun!

Scarborough Fair and Silent Night are wonderfully
blended in this wonderful arrangement that is
perfect for your next holiday concert.

Snow Dance—Erica Donahoe. Great for winter-
time concerts or throughout the year, this
beautifully written new work by composer Erica
Donahoe evokes the joy of twirling about as the
first few flecks of snow start to dot the horizon.
A nostalgic and fun new work for the developing
string ensemble!

Snowflake—Yukiko Nishimura. Floating and
delicate, this gorgeous piece features long melody
lines and plenty of sustaining harmonies. It evokes
the feeling of taking a walk during a gentle snowfall.
Violin 1 leads with the main melody as the other
sections have an inner melody. Each line should be
played espressivo at all times. A stunning selection
for winter concerts.
