Add some festive swing to your Christmas programme with this exciting collection of eight popular Christmas carols arranged for B♭ tenor saxophone and piano. Featuring upbeat rhythms, jazz phrasing and blues-inspired harmonies, these arrangements offer something refreshingly different for Christmas concerts, recitals and seasonal performances.
Carols included:
Ding Dong! Merrily on High Silent Night We Three Kings Away in a Manger Joy to the World God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen Deck the Halls Good King Wenceslas
The B♭ tenor saxophone part is fully written out, with jazz articulations, phrasing and stylistic inflections clearly marked. The piano accompaniment is also completely notated and includes jazz chord symbols for pianists who wish to improvise or “comp.”
Written for moderately advanced performers, these swinging Christmas arrangements are ideal for holiday concerts, school and community performances, church services, parties, festive recitals and Christmas busking. The tenor saxophone range is comfortable and moderate, with no excessively high notes.
If you are looking for jazzy Christmas sheet music for tenor saxophone and piano, this entertaining collection provides a lively alternative to traditional carol arrangements.
