Everybody in
the band gets their own
special day in this
creative holiday rock
arrangement of the
familiar tune. The melody
gets traded off from
section to section in a
fairly predictable way
until it's the piano
players turn. Then things
change abruptly and some
funky fun begins. This
leads up to an open solo
section over only 2
chords, and the
background parts sound so
good you could even omit
the solos if desired. A
few bars of piano sets up
the melody again - this
time in a canon - which
leads to a big ending. At
least 12 days of
creativity in one fun and
easy to prepare
chart!
