Holiday Joy

Based on Beethoven's Ode to Joy, this chart begins with a slow and melodic hymn-style chorale then switches to a jazz/rock feel for the development. This chart has a nice rock groove, interesting harmony, no individual solos and the lead trumpet player's highest note is a written A-flat. Optional parts are included for flute, horn in F, baritone/tenor sax and tuba. A very pleasant change of pace for your holiday concert!
