Take a well-known holiday classic, give it to a creative arranger, and you get a hard driving rock chart that's filled with instrumental and dynamic contrasts! After an attention-getting introduction, a few bars of the melody are played quietly in 3/4. Then it's straight-ahead rock in 4/4. The open solo section for any instrument has only two chords, and the chart works fine even if the solo section is omitted. A very impressive chart at the medium-easy level. The trumpets never leave the staff. It's the perfect "something different" for your holiday concerts.
