Par JOHNSON TIMOTHY. An imaginative look at a good old-fashioned Christmas! From aromas of family favorites cooking in the kitchen, to the images of decorated trees, snow scenes, and caroling - all are a part of that wonderful celebration. Rather than just taking the same old Public Domain Christmas carols for one more go ‘round, Timothy Johnson has composed the majority of THREE HOLIDAY SCENES using fresh and original melodies. The first scene opens with fragments of “Oh Tannenbaum” but quickly moves into a beautiful Christmas waltz. An “effets de neige, ” or “Snowfall effect, ” carries the luscious second and contrasting scene. In the 3rd and final scene, the phrases from well-known carols mergewith one another, creating the effect of “caroling. ” Finally, melodies serve as counterpoint for one another and bring this delightful vignette to a close. This piece presents an excellent opportunity to work with the Art department in creating drawings and paintings of holiday images. Pull your chair a little closer to the fireplace and sit back for a winsome holiday treat! / Niveau : 2.5 / Répertoire / Concert Band
