Kendor Music Publishing

A featured trumpet soloist takes center stage in this jazz ballad arrangement of the holiday favorite. After a brief introduction, the melody unfolds for the soloist over rhythm section accompaniment before textures gradually build as the other winds join in. A contrasting middle section in a new key allows for written or improvised solo work, with emphasis on tone, control, and balance. An ideal winter selection when showcasing a strong trumpet player within an expressive ensemble setting.

Easy Play Jazz Pak No.  7 (Christmas)

Alfred Publishing Belwin Division

As recorded by the USAF Airmen of Note and arranged by Alan Baylock in the style of Li'l Darlin', this slow swing chart is an ideal selection for the holidays. It features no improvised solos but it has a written trumpet melody solo, lead trumpet range to written G on top of the staff, and it's technically a very easy chart to play. Get the slow groove, and it's a lock! Another superb Baylock arrangement, this chart will be the centerpiece of any holiday performance! Our highest recommendation! Option expanded instrumentation.

All Is Calm, All Is Bright

Take your band on a tour of musical styles as everyone's favorite Christmas song gets a special treatment by arranger Chris Sharp. Opening with a slow trumpet solo a la Harry James, it soon breaks into an up-tempo swing that will have everyone's toes tappin'! Then, it goes alternating through rock, swing, and salsa styles before it finally makes a big, bluesy, big-band finish. Highly recommended!

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

It would be difficult to find a more ideal holiday chart than this arrangement by Rich DeRosa. It begins with a powerful, jubilant fanfare that seamlessly melds into a fun calypso style. Interweaving melodic lines from two holiday favorites abound as the audience is taken on an ingenious musical journey with a brief visit to a half-time funk feel. There's ample solo space with cued background figures for piano and baritone sax to share their festive spirit. A must-have for the holiday season!

Deck the Halls with Jingle Bells

Vince Guaraldi's music provided a level of jazz sophistication for the popular Charlie Brown television specials, and his holiday offerings were some of the best! This appealing medley includes Linus and Lucy; Skating; O Tannenbaum and Christmas Time is Here. Highly recommended as the hit of the season!

A Charlie Brown Christmas

This swinging holiday arrangement is a slightly easier version of the chart that Alan Baylock did for the USAF Airmen of Note. It features the saxes in a "four brothers" setting with written solo space provided for each of the five saxes if desired. The lead trumpet range is to written B above the staff and there are parts included for optional expanded instrumentations. Here's a Christmas chart with substance!

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Feliz Navidad

Here's a very clever arrangement of this holiday gem! It's a drum set on brushes feature at around 172 bpm in the style of Hefti's Cute with a written or ad lib trumpet 2 solo. There's tons of nice ensemble work and a lead trumpet range up to written A above the staff. A nice sax soli and a unison interlude complete this Christmas package!

The Little Drummer Boy

Doug Beach Music

Holiday classics meet contemporary Latin grooves in this jazz band medley combining We Three Kings and Deck the Halls. A layered Latin rock opening grows into a trombone soli and shifts to a half‑time funk feel for a full ensemble shout, then drives forward with a key change and rock energy for the final section. Style changes and syncopation sharpen ensemble focus while keeping the spirit festive. A lively choice for high school groups needing a fresh and engaging winter concert feature.
