Clarinet,Piano - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.761530 Composed by Chris Lawry, Keri Degg. Christmas,Jazz. Score and part. 7 pages. Masquerade Music #6078611. Published by Masquerade Music (A0.761530). Ukrainian Folk Carol (often known by another name however) for Bb Clarinet and piano (or use the enhanced FREE demo/backing tracks via request after ordering - details are given on your printed sheet music) by UK composers Chris Lawry and Keri Degg. New for September 2020 this is a very fresh take on this traditional classic and has been launched into a crazy swing/groove style! It's a great showstopper and a real joy to play. The piece includes playful interplay and new original material/written solo/s. Ukrainian Folk Carol is just one of five pieces from 'Christmas Jazz - Volume 2' Clarinet edition (also available in Bb sax, Eb sax and Flute editions) which also includes; Deck the halls (Piazzolla-inspired style), The Holly and the Ivy - a smooshy smooth jazz ballad with original solo/s, Away in a manger - again, a gentle smooth jazz style, and O Holy Night (which has cheeky interplay, yet sweeping original lines too). All the pieces are aimed at early intermediate-confident intermediate level (typical UK exam grades from grade 4-6) so are achievable by most players (and don't take weeks and weeks of preparation; very important at the busy festive time!).There is also a 'Christmas Jazz - Volume 1' collection by the same composers (which includes; God rest ye merry gentlemen, Silent night, The first nowell, Hark the herald, and I saw three ships - all of which are available on SMP, or search for Christmas Jazz volume 1 if you'd like to buy the collection at a bargain price).The demonstration and backing tracks feature enhanced audio (not just piano) and sound like the MP3 audio and Youtube video on this item listing, so you'll get the full experience! :D
