As arranged by jazz writer Jeff Jarvis, the popular Christmas song by Jack Rollins and Steve Nelson about the happy-go-lucky snow man with the corncob pipe, a button nose and two eyes made out of coal features catchy, yet accessible swing rhythms and provides brief rests for each player at strategic intervals. Dense, satisfying jazz voicings give it a lighthearted, authentic jazz flavor that is well-suited for the inherent timbre and agility of flutes. Duration 2:30. |
