Program Notes
Perfect as an opener to any winter or holiday concert, this arrangement of the Mannheim Steamroller tune is a grand way to ring in the season. The opening brass fanfare gives way to a driving groove combining original themes with quotes from Deck the Halls; Hallelujah Chorus and Joy to the World.
