Grade 2 SKU: CL.011-4848-00
A Christmas Felony. Composed by Bradley. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Score and set of parts. Composed 2020. Duration 2 minutes, 26 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-4848-00. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-4848-00). Get Off My Housetop – A Christmas Felony provides a unique and somewhat twisted musical perspective on the concept of Santa Claus. When we review all the lore surrounding St. Nick, it is easy to interpret him and his job as kind of creepy. This student-approved arrangement uses Up On the Housetop and Jolly Old St. Nicholas - along with a host of fun percussion effects - to offer some new thoughts on Santa. You’ve never played a Christmas piece quite like this before!
