Program Notes

From the realm of 'popular' (but not 'pop') music comes the musical clock whose tick-tock is not always on an even keel. Leroy Anderson's melodies have reached millions and can be whistled or sung by just about everyone. Here is a delightful arrangement that swings just a bit but generally stays true to the original sounds.
