Masquerade MusicUkrainian Folk Carol (often known by another name however) for Eb saxophone (Alto, or Baritone) and piano (or use the enhanced free demo/backing tracks via request after ordering - details are given on your printed sheet music) by UK composers Chris Lawry and Keri Degg.
New for September 2020 this is a very fresh take on this traditional classic and has been launched into a crazy swing/groove style! It\'s a great showstopper and a real joy to play. The piece includes playful interplay and new original material/solo/s.
Ukrainian Folk Carol is just one of five pieces from \'Christmas Jazz - Volume 2\' Eb Saxophone (also available in Bb sax, Bb clarinet, and flute editions) which also includes; Deck the halls (Piazzolla-inspired style), The Holly and the Ivy - a smooshy smooth jazz ballad with original solo/s, Away in a manger - again, a gentle smooth jazz style, and O Holy Night (which has cheeky interplay, yet sweeping original lines too).
There is also a \'Christmas Jazz - Volume 1\' collection by the same composers (which includes; God rest ye merry gentlemen, Silent night, The first nowell, Hark the herald, and I saw three ships - all of which are available on SMP, or search for Christmas Jazz volume 1 if you\'d like to buy the collection at a bargain price).
