Preface
Once again the Christmas season gives Christians everywhere opportunity to celebrate. Christ is born ... there is reason to hope!
Music is a particularly wonderful way to thank God for his great gift.
The music in this issue of the American Band Journal is particularly joyful and celebratory. We thank David Roswell, Bill Broughton, Douglas Court, and Dorothy Gates for contributing music that will uplift and inspire listeners everywhere.
We are pleased that you have discovered the American Band Journal and encourage you to look to our past releases to fill out your Christmas programs.
Merry Christmas and may God bless you.
