Product Description

**This is the complete set of parts in LETTER format, the score in LEGAL size is a separate download. NOTES: This setting of the "Holly & the Ivy" Christmas carol is depicted musically as a walk through the woods. Listeners will hear the sound of a woodpecker, dove, and the rustling and shivering of animals in trilling winds amidst chilling harmonies. Following the statement of the carol theme in brass echoed by glockenspiel, a beautiful snowfall enhances this musical winter scene. PERFORMANCE NOTES: An inexpensive plastic dove bird call can easily be obtained at a sporting goods store, and these work quite well. If needed, it can be amplified from a speaker placed in the back with the percussion setup. A synthesized harp part played by a keyboard is included with glissandos written out & cues are provided in complete absence of the harp or synthesizer. English Horn & Double Bass can be omitted and arent integral to the piece. Probably a grade 4 piece. Roughly 3 mins in duration.
