*INSTRUMENTATION: VIOLIN & VIOLA DUET*
"Feliz Navidad" was originally written in 1970 by Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Jose Feliciano, with simple, heartfelt lyrics expressing the joy he felt at his family Christmas celebrations back in Puerto Rico. The song has since become a beloved Christmas classic, and it has also become one of the most downloaded and aired songs in North America -- so you really can't go wrong having this one in your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for violin and viola duet maintains the joyful upbeat tempo, catchy melody, and danceable groove of the original, and it's definitely just as much fun to play as it is to listen to; you're sure to get your audience singing along. This will be a great one for Christmas parties, cocktail hour, solo & ensemble contests, or any other event that needs some festive cheer! This is a simple, easy-intermediate-level arrangement that makes a big impact; it will be easily playable for students and sightreadable for professionals.
