H Christmas Classics—arr. John O'Reilly.
Here's the "heavy" number for your Christmas
concert this year! Beginning with the march
from Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker Suite," this
medley follows with Bizet's March Of The
Three Kings and concludes with Handel's
Hallelujah Chorus. This is superb Christmas
programming for strings alone, but will
be greatly enhanced by the effective but
optional wind and percussion parts.

magical sounds of childhood sprinkled over the
top, this piece is a true holiday gem!
