Get your
orchestra swinging this
year with a fun Christmas
piece based on the
ever-popular “Up On
The Housetop.â€
Drawing from his jazz
background, Carl Strommen
delivers an arrangement
that is unique and
authentic to the idiom,
but within the technical
capabilities of the
intermediate student. Oh
what fun it will be to
ride this sleigh –
Ho, ho
ho!.
Swingin’
Santa (Up on the
Housetop) should be
played lightly and, with
the aide of the ride
cymbal at m.11, with a
slight
“swing.â€
Attention to
articulations and
dynamics will ensure this
cheerful and buoyant
piece a first rate
performance of this
holiday favorite.
