While many get excited at the holidays, some people just can't turn that frown upside down. In this spirit comes a fun swing arrangement of Jingle Bells, written in a blues style. Your students will enjoy the laid back swing figures and the catchy melodic adaptations depicting the fun (maybe just a little??) it is to ride on a one-horse open sleigh. A 'downer' ending takes the blues to a whole new level — sure to be the highlight (and lowlight!) of your next winter program!

In these challenging economic times, what better way to show creativity and compliance than this hilarious setting of the traditional Jingle Bells? The opening announcement reminds the audience that our budgets have been cut and the band has been forced to reduce the amount of new instrument purchases. As a result, the band went to the toy shop and bought several new instruments including the kazoo, toy drum, toy xylophone, and trash can lid cymbals among others. Following the tuning of the toys, the swing setting kicks off and features the toys in melody, improvisation and response quotes throughout. Now that’s what I call using our resources!.
