arr by Franz Gruber
A beautiful series of harmonic variations on this well-known Christmas favorite is developed with modulations through several different keys, featuring the individual instruments in both solo and ensemble roles. The music is not technically difficult, and the chromatic harmonies provide an opportunity to work on the expressive aspects of this evocative and lyrical piece.
Instrumentation:
Trumpet 1-2
Horn
Trombone 1-2
Bass Trombone
