Percussion Ensemble - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.891828 Composed by George Frideric Handel, James Chadwick, James Pierpont, and Thomas Oliphant. Arranged by Aaron G. Railey. Christmas. Score and parts. 28 pages. Aaron G. Railey #6607247. Published by Aaron G. Railey (A0.891828). A Caribbean Christmas is a thrilling adventure through the most famous and recognizable Christmas holiday songs of all time. Written in a Caribbean Soca rhythmic style and including three key changes, this is an advanced arrangement that will feature and challenge your best musicians. Each section of the ensemble has the opportunity to perform the melody in this arrangement. Often, students on the accompaniment instruments are stuck playing repeated chords with little to no motion or challenge. I found it important as an educator that each student gets challenged and has the opportunity to feel important to the contribution of the ensemble. Every ensemble that has ever performed this has received a standing ovation. It is thrilling, exciting, challenging, recognizable, and just fun to play. I hope that you enjoy this and it brings holiday spirit to your community! .
