Written with the second-year percussionist in mind, Up on the Housetop presents the students with both melodic and harmonic writing but also a little counterpoint to provide more independence. Scored for 8 percussionists, it includes 2 Bell Players, 2 Xylophone Players (performing on 1 instrument), 1 Marimba Player, 2 Percussion 1 player (Temple Blocks and Triangle), and 1 Percussion 2 player playing Sleighbells. The inclusion of a short vocal part ("Ho Ho Ho") at the end, performed by the entire ensemble or a soloist, makes for a fun end to the piece. It's sure to be a hit on holiday/winter concerts.
