Published by Kevin P Holdgate (A0.1349593). Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas is a song written in 1943 by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane and introduced by Judy Garland in the 1944 MGM musical Meet Me in St. Louis. Frank Sinatra later recorded a version with modified lyrics. In 2007, ASCAP ranked it the third most performed Christmas song during the preceding five years that had been written by ASCAP members. In 2004 it finished at No. 76 in AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs rankings of the top tunes in North American cinema.This arrangement for Trombone solo and brass band is based on a big band arrangement by the great American arranger Dave Wolpe. It is suitable for advanced intermediate trombone players with a range up to High Bb. The central improvised section has a written solo that I personally played (but this can be expanded upon at the discretion of the soloist).
