Here is a great change of pace for a holiday program. ?Good King Wenceslas? and ?While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks? are treated in an upbeat swing setting with all the nuances found in a jazz ensemble. The arrangement features some ?jungle? drums, a smooth jazz section, an exciting contrapuntal section, and a genuine big band ending. The Good King Swings! will be a welcome addition to any holiday music library!
