Qu'est-ce qu'un arrangement mixte-up, le mètre mixte, fou et amusant de 'Jingle Bells!' Comme l'indique le lyrique, 'La mélodie est la même- les rythmes, ils ne sont pas.' / 3 Voix Mixtes

Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). Jingle Bells dates from the mid-nineteenth century and is thought to be one of the first secular Christmas songs to ?top the charts?. It is in fact not about Christmas at all but instead about the ?Cutter? drag races in Boston, where young men would race sleighs and attempt to impress the girls with their speed. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offering a selection of beautifully crafted arrangements in a diversity of musical styles. From Broadway, pop and folk to spirituals, gospel and original works, the series is arranged for 3-part choir (soprano, alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines, the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion ? so get exploring and get singing! / Choral Music / Répertoire / Voix Mixtes SAB et Piano
