Jazzin’ Merry Gentlemen presents a hip, swing version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen that really cooks! A powerful, full-ensemble intro sets the table for the soli trombone statement of the tune, which is punctuated by colorful brass riffs, and unison sax lines. Next, a catchy low tom drum riff builds to the solo, where changes are modest, with suggested solos included. A hard-hitting restatement of the theme then builds to a powerful conclusion. Jazzin’ Merry Gentlemen will be the hit of your holiday concert.
