He Dance of the Reed Flutes—P.I. Tchaikovsky/
arr. Carrie Lane Gruselle. Taken from Act II of
Tchaikovsky's timeless "Nutcracker" ballet,
Carrie Lane Gruselle's arrangement of Dance of
the Reed Flutes is a sugar-sprinkled "plum" for
string orchestras. It's a lively way to incorporate
a traditional Christmas favorite into secular
holiday concerts for upper-elementary/middle
school performers.

4 Deck the Hall of the Mountain King—
Edvard Grieg/arr. Richard Meyer. This totally
unique (and somewhat crazy!) selection will be
the hit of your holiday concert! Your audience
will be delighted when they hear what happens
when the festive Welsh carol Deck the Halls is
combined with the dark and mysterious In the
Hall of the Mountain King from Grieg's "Peer
Gynt Suite." Many key playing skills including
accidentals, tempo changes, and important
balance issues are reinforced throughout.
Sleigh bells and crash cymbals add just the
right amount of color to this fun, good-natured
seasonal work.

e Four Character Dances from "The
Nutcracker"—P.I. Tchaikovsky/arr. Michael

favorite. This accessible arrangement for string
orchestra contains four popular character
dances from Act II of the ballet, where Clara
and the Prince travel to the Land of Sweets that
is ruled by the Sugar-Plum Fairy. These light
pieces of dance music celebrate sweets from
around the world and include chocolate from
Spain, coffee from Arabia, tea from China and
candy canes from Russia.

He Hanukkah Habanera—arr. Tim McCarrick.
"Carmen" meets Hanukkah in this remarkably
clever combination of The Dreidel Song;
Hanukkah, O Hanukkah and Bizet's famous
Habanera from his most famous opera! It all
works amazingly well, with shifts from minor
to major, a seamless bass line, and lots of
tongue-in-cheek humor! What a hoot! Highly
recommended!

How the Grinch Stole Christmas—arr. Jerry
Brubaker. As both a film and a cartoon, "How
the Grinch Stole Christmas" has become an
annual tradition for kids and adults alike. This
arrangement begins with a bluesy, nasty version
of You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch, then
moves into the happier, more hopeful Welcome
Christmas ("He Carves the Roast Beast" or "Fa-
hoo For-aze"). This will really stop the show!

4 My Candles—Traditional/arr. Brendan McBrien.
Sometimes known as In the Window, this tradi-
tional Hanukkah song is a lovely and haunting
melody written in strophic form - having only one

verses giving added variation and interest - a
beautiful addition to the holiday repertoire!
