Benjamin Hanby: Up On The Housetop: Woodwind Ensemble: Score and Parts

By Benjamin R. Hanby. Arranged by William Owens. FJH Starter Series. The piece from beginning to end has a special festive quality, and should be bouncy, not heavy. At measure 6, percussion and low voices must be considerate of the upper woodwind melody. Play the sections at measures 14 and 26 in the same festive manner as the introduction. The slide whistle and the "Ho!, Ho!, Ho!" parts should be bold and without reservation. The section at measure 34 (especially the last three notes) should be climactic in nature but not overplayed. Score for this title: B1294S. Extra part for this title: B1294P. Concert Band. Level: 0.5. Score and Set of Parts. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc.
