HOLIDAY CLASSICS—arr. Peter Blair. Younger
jazz ensembles can have a complete “holiday set”
with these four separate Christmas carols arranged in
contrasting styles! Go Tell It on the Mountain is an easy
swing chart, O Little Town of Bethlehem is a smooth ballad
with written solos for trumpet and alto sax, Joy to the
World is a clever setting in the style of Neal Hefti’s Cute
and Up on the Housetop rounds out the set in swing style.
Tastefully arranged at an accessible level, these will be
charts you will program year after year. With standard
instrumentation, they also sound full and complete with
a reduced instrumentation of 3 saxes (AAT), 3 trumpets,
2 trombones, piano, bass and drums. Great charts and
practical too! Our highest recommendation!

HOT CHOCOLATE (from “The Polar
Express”)—Alan Silvestri/arr. Lewis. From the
movie “The Polar Express,” Hot Chocolate is hot stuff! A
fun swinger in a jump style, it’s loaded with energy, based
on the original recording and has been skillfully adapted
for the young player. There are no solos, the ranges are
modest and a driving bass line makes it move along. To
make this chart flexible for all year, the arranger offers two
endings: one with a clever and effective modulation to a
Jingle Bells quote and one without. Highly recommended!

JOY TO THE WORLD—arr. Andy Clark. Here’s
the perfect chart to showcase a young jazz ensemble at
your holiday concert while teaching them basic swing
concepts. With no solos and lots of great ensemble sounds
based on the popular Christmas carol, it swings right along
and eventually goes to a shuffle feel and a highly effective
modulation for the last chorus. Sure to be an audiencepleaser
and a real treat for all! Highly recommended!
Optional reduced instrumentation.

a melody that is passed from section to section, and
short written or ad lib solos for trumpet and tenor sax.
Optional reduced or expanded instrumentations. Highly
recommended!

chart an outstanding choice. A must-have for your holiday

Baby It’s Cold Outside—
arr. Rick Stitzel. This familiar standard is
usually performed as a duet and has been
recorded countless times over the years,
and notably in the holiday movie favorite
“Elf” starring Will Ferrell. This charming
arrangement for beginning players features
the saxes and trumpets in the answering
duet phrases. No solos are required, however
an alto soloist could be used in one of the
soli sections. This will sound great with
