This lighthearted arrangement includes some optional percussion to really bring in the holiday season. The melody passes between upper and lower strings in humorous fashion, and the audience will even hear Santa's jolly voice from the rooftop. A lot of fun!

Spirits Bright was inspired by the idea that the holiday season, while a time of joy and peace, may also be a time of reflection on and acknowledgement of the year's passing. The work is an expression of the nostalgia and wistfulness we experience during the holidays; a time when we remember friends and family, both present and past. Spirits Bright evokes the bittersweet warmth of a fire in the fireplace, chestnuts roasting, snow falling gently, and jingle bells.

Larry Clark does it again with this tuneful new feel good piece. You and your students will walk away humming this tune. There is even a nice contrasting lyrical middle section in the relative minor to break up the piece.
Solstice: one of two times in the year when the sun is at its greatest distancefrom the celestial equator.A solstice happens at the mid-point of summer, about June 21, and the midpoint of winter, about December 22. Each of those times of year is delightful. The carefree days of summer have just begun around June 21, when the mind wanders to long bike rides or walks on the beach. During the winter solstice the mind is filled with all of the delights that the holiday season has to offer. Either way, a solstice is a joyous and fun filled time of year, and this piece is intended to bring to mind some of these wonderful times. The main theme should be performed in a light carefree manner, which is then contrasted by the more lyrical and passionate middle section.As with all of my pieces for younger students, the tempo indicated is merely a guide. Adjust the tempo to fit the needs of your students. It has been my pleasure to have the opportunity to write this piece. I hope you and your students enjoy it and find it useful for your program.

In A Holiday Smash-Up, an eclectic take on familiar holiday melodies, the woodwinds insist on playing Jingle Bells, while the brass remains resolute about playing O Christmas Tree. The hilarity grows as each frustrated section begins lobbing random decoy Christmas songs into the mix. In the end the brass and the woodwinds both get their holiday wish by finding a way to play the two songs at the same time! Individual parts are consciously written to support student success in the short holiday rehearsal season, while the work itself is a musical holiday joke book, full of surprises and unexpected twists. Liven up your next holiday concert with the humor and joy of A Holiday Smash-Up!.
