A wonderful collection of Traditional Christmas Carols in a jazz style for Trumpet in Bb and Piano arranged by British arranger and Trumpeter, Keith Terrett. The Carols included are: 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 and Good King Wenceslas. The Trumpet part is all written out with jazz inflections and articulation included. The Piano part is all written out, but also includes the jazz chords for players who wish to "comp". These Carols are playable by moderately advanced performers and are perfect for parties, church services, "busking" and recitals. Range is very moderate, nothing high at all. Mr. Terrett makes use of different mutes for a wide range of colors. |
