Item: 05300101 Price: $2.25	Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! A hit from the music of the 1940’s, Jule Styne’s music and Sammy Cahn’s lyrics reflect the feeling of warmth and security associated with Christmas. A fun, dancing “scat like” intro sets a swingin’ feel to this men’s jazz choral arrangement. The main carol melody is a solo voice or small group, accompanied by a vocal rhythmic setting of tight harmonies and special effects. TTBB, Solo or Small Group, A cappella Performance time: 2:35 Listen

Item: 05300102 Price: $2.00	Away in a manger This lovely traditional carol, also known as “Cradle Song”, is a must for your Christmas repertoire. The hauntingly beautiful melody from William James Kirkpatrick is set in lush harmonies with 7th and 9th chords, with divisi in both tenor and bass parts, giving your group a wonderful opportunity to show its diversity and talent. TTBB A cappella Performance time: 2:00 Listen

Item: 05300103 Price: $2.00	Silent night Give your group and your audiences a real treat with this favorite Christmas carol. Set uniquely in ballad style 4/4 time, this men’s jazz choral arrangement features a solo backed by rhythmic choir. The middle section changes to 6/8 with tutti choir in very lush, tight divisi harmonies, returning to the solo for the concluding verse. TTBB with Solo, A cappella Performance time: 4:00 Listen

Item: 05300104 Price: $2.00	Jingle bells Definitely a winner! This arrangement sizzles! A lilty 6/8 meter presents the story in verse with fun and schmaltz. The familiar chorus of “Jingle Bells” rocks with a driving 4/4 beat, capped with a dynamite ending. TTBB, A cappella Performance time (with 3 vs.) 3:20 Listen

Item: 05300105 Price: $2.00	Deck the halls Dancing with syncopation, this men’s jazz version of the popular Christmas carol will be a delight for your group to sing. Strong unison melodic lines tell the carol story encored by the phenomenally rhythmic and fun “Fa, La, La, La La’s. Very tight harmonies make this an awesome find for your library. TTBB, A cappella Performance time: 1:50 Listen

Item: 05300106 Price $2.00	Angels we have heard on high This wonderful French carol is an absolute joy to sing! The melody is passed from one vocal part to another, each verse being creatively different. The flowing lines of the Gloria in excelsis Deo weave a colorful tapestry of wonderful contemporary harmony. TTBB, A cappella Performance time: 2:20 Listen
