?On Christmas Night, On Christmas Day, Rejoice!? takes its name from lyrics of the three tunes that comprise this medley. ?On Christmas night all Christians sing? are the opening words of the Sussex Carol, a traditional English tune with words first published in 1684. English folk-song collectors Cecil Sharp and Ralph Vaughan Williams both collected versions of the song, and Vaughan Williams published his arrangement of the tune in 1919. ?On Christmas day in the morning? are the concluding words of the refrain of the carol also known as ?I Saw Three Ships.? Like the Sussex Carol, it is a traditional English carol, and it was published by William Sandys in his 1833 work, Christmas Carols Ancient and Modern. ?Rejoice? is the imperative verb in the invitation, ?Good Christian men, rejoice,? which are the opening words to the medieval carol, ?In dulci jubilo? (?In sweet rejoicing?). John Mason Neale, an Anglican priest, scholar, and hymn-writer, wrote the familiar English translation in 1853. Quick to rehearse and fun to play, this cheerful medley evokes the joy of Christmas. Intrmediate level, suitablefor high school to professional ensembles for use in concert,recital, and worship. Full score and parts, 8.5x11-inch format. �Copyright2015 Todd Marchand / ConSpiritoMusic.com

(Also available for brass band (treble clef) quintet. Contains the following carols: Good Christian Men Rejoice God Rest You Merry Gentlemen Come Ye Lofty, Come Ye Lowly The First Nowell Plenty of fun for each player.

A funny version ofthe famous christmas song "Jingle Bells", arranged by Austrian arrangerAugustin Lehfuss and was originally written for the German"Rennquintett", whose members used to perform it on their christmasshows. "Oberkrain" is an remote area somewhere in the Austrian and Slowenian alps, which has created a special style of folk music, which is quite popular in the eastern alpine regions This arrangment is part of a series of 5arrangements of "jingle bells" for brass quintet, which are alsoavailable here on SMP ( also in a swinging, a chinese, a french waltz and alatin style), but wiith a length of just 75 seconds it will serve well as anencore number played alone. see also the other 4 Arrangements in this serie,which can be found at the same publisher�s appearance here on SMP.

?Gaudete! Christus est natus? is a medieval carol published in the 1582 collection of Finnish and Swedish sacred songs, Piae Cantiones. The carol is a song of praise comprising a two-line refrain, or burden, alternating with four-line verses. The Latin text of the burden, ?Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus ex Maria Virgine. Gaudete!? translates as ?Rejoice, rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary. Rejoice!? Interestingly, Piae Cantiones provides no music for the verses, but a standard tune for the verses appeared in other songbooks of the time. Although verses would typically be sung by a solo voice or unison voices, this arrangement attempts to evoke something of the medieval technique of harmonies in parallel motion on the second, third and fourth verses. �Copyright2011 Todd Marchand / ConSpiritoMusic.com

"Hard Candy Christmas", written by Carol Hall and made famous by Dolly Parton in the musical "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas", is a beautiful, wistful Christmas song reminding us that the Christmas spirit is as powerful during lean times as at any other time. We've arranged this for brass quintet with the melody showcasing both trumpets, French horn, and trombone. Performance time is approximately 1:55. Visit our website, www.tootsuitebrasspublishing.com, for a catalog of our arrangements available through sheetmusicplus.com.

\\\"Resonet in Laudibus\\\" (\\\"Let the voice of praise resound\\\") is a Medieval carol known in Europe at least since its appearance in the Moosburg Gradual of 1360, and probably much earlier. Today, it is well-known as the tune accompanying the text of the traditional German carol, \\\"Joseph Lieber, Joseph Mein\\\" (\\\"Joseph Dearest, Joseph Mine\\\") and John Mason Neale\\\'s \\\"Christ Was Born on Christmas Day.\\\"

The tune appears in the Medieval songbook, Piae Cantiones (Pious Songs), compiled by the Finnish priest and headmaster Jaakko Suomalainen (aka Jacobus Finno, or \\\"James the Finn\\\") and published in 1582. Ralph Vaughan Williams harmonized the tune and included it in the English Hymnal (1906), of which he was music editor.

This lovely, lilting tune is an ideal vehicle for a sonorous arrangement for brass quintet.
