Christmas Favorites for Brass
Product Code: 4100002079
- Twenty exciting arrangements of Christmas favorites by William Gordon
- Scored for as few as 14 players except where noted
Foreword
Following the popular "Hymns For Brass", this wonderful collection of Christmas music features an international flavor. Cre has been taken to select carols that truely are represenative of countries beyond the United States. There is also a generous sprinkling of secular songs that have become a big part of the festive season throughout the years. Christmas For Brass contains a variety of styles which should appeal to the tastes of all. Energetic, tender, lyrical, swing, robust, a touch of the masters - all these moods permeate the music of this collection of Christmas favorites. The book is also designed so that two or more selections may be combined into a larger suite or medley. These creative arrangements fall within the moderate to moderate-difficult range.
So, button up your overcoat (unless you happen to be in Australia), and enjoy the sounds of my favorite season and a Merry Christmas to all.
