Author: Ryan Fraley
Format: Book with Audio Online
Instrumentation: Score
Level: 2.5

A collection of six Christmas and holiday charts for small jazz groups at grade 2.5. All charts are scored in three-part writing, with flexible instrumentation provided by all three parts in each wind book. Solo sections are provided with changes, and also a mini-clinic with a break down of the spelled-out chord progression and a scale etude for each tune. Twelve transcribed solos match the recordings note-for-note, and twelve suggested solos give younger players a starting point with themes taken from the recorded solos. 54 play-along tracks provide every instrument a chance to sit in with the recorded band.

Song List:

• Up On the Housetop
• Good King Wenceslas
• Jingle Bells
• Deck the Halls
• The Holly and the Ivy
• Auld Lang Syne
