Bluebell is an arrangement of a piece originally written for string orchestra. A short introduction was added for this arrangement, and the key has been changed as well. Bluebell is the kind of flower which looks like a small bell; it is a dainty little flower.The main melody is very simple and easy to express. The inner melodies are important, too. Each inner melody should be played as a main melody even if it is a bass line.This piece consists of three sections. The second section is based on the main melody, so the atmosphere is consistent through the music. The harmony changes are very dramatic here. The bass lines should be heard clearly. The glockenspiel has an important role in this music.

While many get excited at the holidays, some people just can't turn that frown upside down. In this spirit comes a fun swing arrangement of Jingle Bells, written in a blues style. Your students will enjoy the laid back swing figures and the catchy melodic adaptations depicting the fun (maybe just a little??) it is to ride on a one-horse open sleigh. A 'downer' ending takes the blues to a whole new level — sure to be the highlight (and lowlight!) of your next winter program!
