By Colbie Caillat. By Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane. Arranged by David McKeown. Christmas,Contemporary,Holiday,Jazz. Score and parts. 3 pages. David McKeown #6069623. Published by David McKeown (A0.589417).

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas was first performed by Judy Garland in the film musical Meet Me in St Louis. Even though it was an instant wartime hit with homesick GIs, it is Frank Sinatra’s 1957 recording, with more upbeat lyrics, that has ensured the song endures as a Christmas classic. This version is arranged as a duet for one Clarinet and one Tenor Saxophone.

Musicians at an intermediate level and above will find this ideal for formal and informal Christmas performances. The rhythms are straightforward;  there are some less familiar accidentals and the arrangement covers a wide range. The overall performance time is around two and a half minutes. The short sample audio is from the Clarinet and Alto Saxophone version while the full length video on the youtube link is the arrangement for Clarinet duet.

Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with ensemble skills and developing expressive playing.

Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by David McKeown. Classical,Concert,Instructional,Standards. Score and parts. 5 pages. David McKeown #3069127. Published by David McKeown (A0.587124).

Rondo Alla Turca is the title W A Mozart gave to the last movement of his 11th Piano Sonata in A Major K331. It has become one of the most instantly recognisable of Mozart’s melodies. It derives its title from the Turkish style marching bands that were fashionable in Vienna at the time. This version is arranged as a duet for one Clarinet and one Alto Saxophone.

Musicians at an advanced intermediate level and above will find this ideal for formal and informal performances, with both parts enjoying melodic interest. The duet format gives solo instrumentalists an opportunity to play music written for piano. The overall performance time is around three and a half minutes.

Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with ensemble skills. There are various ornaments to negotiate, detailed articulation and a wide range of dynamics. Both the short audio sample and the full-length youtube video performance is from the Clarinet version of this duet.
