Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Easy

Publisher: Alfred Publishing

Big Band Holiday is the perfect holiday chart for the young jazz band. Arranger Carl Strommen has blended:

 

• I’ll Be Home For Christmas
• Santa Claus is Coming To Town
• Have Yourself a Merry Christmas
• Frosty the Snowman

into an easy-to-rehearse and very playable chart. The chart features brief written-out solos for trombone 2 and alto sax 1 and plenty of ensemble playing throughout. The brass range is modest with lead trumpet going up to written F on the top line. A superb chart!
