Christmas Symphony—Elliot Del Borgo. Here
is an easy holiday work featuring four works that
make a mini-symphony! Angels We Have Heard
on High; Hark! the Herald Angels Sing; God
Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and O Come, All Ye
Faithful. Each piece flows directly into the next for
a joyous medley that's not too hard and serves as
a great opener or closer.

e Christmas Time Is Here—arr. Bob Cerulli. From
the joyous finale of A Charlie Brown Christmas
comes the song that has become a holiday
tradition. Your students will love learning this
and may learn a few new notes along the way!
The arrangement is simple enough for young
orchestras to play, yet it keeps that original Vince
Gauraldi Trio jazz sound that everyone loves.
Make this a holiday tradition!

Day. The perfect holiday concert centerpiece for
your first and second year players, with optional
parts for beginners. This expert medley smoothly
combines Jingle Bells, Jolly Old St. Nicholas,
Silent Night, and We Wish You a Merry Christmas.
The beginner parts are mostly on open strings,
and add interesting rhythms and light harmonies
to the regular setting. Classic indeed!

spirit that your beginning students will surely

techniques to be worked on, making this a top
pick for beginning string orchestras!
