A Carol of the Bells - with Attitude!

Just when we thought another setting of this favorite Ukrainian carol wasn't possible, this fresh arrangement has put that idea to rest! The opening of rapid eighth-note whole-tone ascending scales leads directly into the familiar main theme and sets stage for what's to come. The next section is an amazing swingin' improv of the tune with multiple key changes segueing into a Take Five rhythm. Words cannot adequately describe the jazz improv that reemerges with a straight-rhythm main theme back again and swinging jazz to the end. This will be a rhythmic challenge for even the most accomplished groups – but well worth the effort!
