There are the suggested techniques but let the kids have fun. None of the parts are above a 1st-year player as far as range. The trumpet and clarinet parts are split but are unison 95% of the time.

Good King Wenceslas and boy walking in snow

Good King Wenceslas $20 - works as a great, quick opener for your Christmas Concert.  It is less than 2 minutes and very playable by 2nd-year musicians. The style is a fanfare more than a traditional holiday arrangement and lets your audience know this concert has started!. Though some parts are split, they are due to range and still play in rhythmic unison.

WOODWINDS - Fl, Ob, Bsn, Clar(3), BC, AS, TS, BS.

BRASS - Trpt(2), Hn, Tbn(2), Euph, Tu (Low BR/WW mostly rhythmic unison)

PERCUSSION- Timp, Bells, Xylo, Drum-set, Sus Cym, Sleigh bells

Toy soldiers marching in Christmas parade

JINGLE BELL MARCH $20 - is a fun march for all types of young bands.  At the same time, an older group could have a lot of fun bringing out many of the “hidden” parts and is easy to work up for that annual Christmas parade!

Though the main theme uses a march style of Jingle Bells, there are many other melodies used as counter melodies.  Be sure and bring out each of these on the repeats of each strain.

WOODWINDS - Fl, Ob, Bsn, Clar(2), BC, AS, TS, BS.

BRASS - Trpt(2), Hn, Tbn, Euph, Tu (Low BR/WW mostly unison)

The Addams Family Theme Song $49.99 - The Addams Family theme song was written and composed by Vic Mizzy in 1964 for the television show "The Addams Family," which aired from 1964 to 1966. Mizzy created the iconic "finger-snapping" rhythm of the song, which became a distinctive feature of the show. The theme song's lyrics describe the quirky and macabre Addams family members and their unconventional lifestyle. The Addams Family theme song became a cultural phenomenon,
and its popularity led to numerous cover versions and adaptations in various media. 


The sound effects in the Percussion 2 part are suggestions. Feel free to add your own flavor. Let the kids be creative.

Man and boy walking in snow. Good King Wenceslas

Fantasy On A Good King $25 - This is an extended version of my arrangement of Good King Wenceslas above. It would be rated at 2.5 with multiple divided parts in most sections with a duration of almost 3 minutes. As GKW, it is a driving fanfare and not a traditional Christmas arrangement. It also has variations on the melody with multiple time signatures in one section. Your audience and band will really enjoy the excitement of this piece.

Snowflake - Lot's of Christmas

LOT'S OF CHRISTMAS $20 - is exactly what it says. There are about 20 songs spread throughout, over, under, simultaneously and many other ways throughout the piece. The audience will have fun keeping track of all of the songs. Playing levels are well within a 2nd-year player, but all of the rests, counting, changes, etc. give it the harder level. Once they have the individual parts down, it's very easy to put together.

WOODWINDS - Fl, Ob, Bsn, Clar(2), BC, AS(2), TS, BS.
