John Ivor Holland #876928. Published by John Ivor Holland (A0.1285800). The composer writes: Christmas Troika portrays the joy of Christmas via a musical sleigh-ride. Listen as the glistening snow crinkles beneath the weight of the sleigh and the hooves of the prancing horses as it travels through the countryside. One can almost see the frost on the trees, the wind blow and the sleigh-bells ring as the tune 'O Come, All Ye Faithful' wends its way through the music. This arrangement has been adapted from the string orchestra original, with the keys modified accordingly to make them more band-friendly.
