A Christmas Fantasy for Jazz Band—Paul
Clark. This very creative arrangement based
upon What Child is This? and O Come, O Come
Emmanuel will make a wonderful addition to
holiday concerts. With very few exceptions, the
horn parts amazingly never play anything more
complicated than quarter notes and the ranges
are very reasonable, yet the sound is huge and
impressive. For musical contrast, there are short
written solos for piano, alto, trumpet, and a short
duet for both altos accompanied by a driving,
"steamroller" rock feel. It's also playable with
an optional reduced instrumentation of 3 saxes,
3 trumpets, 1 trombone and 3 rhythm. Totally
awesome and highly recommended!
