Three Holiday Scenes - Timothy Johnson
An imaginative look at a good old-fashioned Christmas! From aromas of family favorites cooking in the kitchen, to the images of decorated trees, snow scenes, and caroling - all are a part of that wonderful celebration.Rather than just taking the same old Public Domain Christmas carols for one more go 'round, Timothy Johnson has composed the majority of THREE HOLIDAY SCENES using fresh and original melodies. The first scene opens with fragments of "Oh Tannenbaum" but quickly moves into a beautiful Christmas waltz. An "effets de neige," or "Snowfall effect," carries the luscious second and contrasting scene. In the 3rd and final scene, the phrases from well-known carols mergewith one another, creating the effect of "caroling." Finally, melodies serve as counterpoint for one another and bring this delightful vignette to a close. This piece presents an excellent opportunity to work with the Art department in creating drawings and paintings of holiday images. Pull your chair a little closer to the fireplace and sit back for a winsome holiday treat!

Andante from the Surprise Symphony - Franz Joseph Haydn
"He alone has the secret of making me smile, and touching me to the bottom of my soul," said Mozart about "Papa" Haydn and his music. The "Surprise" Symphony (No.94), incidentally written during the final year of Mozart's short life, has become one of Haydn's most memorable works.Since this symphony was written during the zenith of the Classical period, Timothy Johnson's skillful arrangement gives you a perfect opportunity to teach your young band "lightness" and control as essentials of Classical style playing. You can introduce the concept of making the staccato notes "separated" instead of just "short" in order to best approximate the sound of the times. It's a naturalselection for your next festival or concert! Why not give your young band a chance to meet "Papa" Haydn through this charming arrangement?

The Essentials Series allows you to select the areas that your band needs work on and provides a great deal of reinforcement for those critical skills. If you are not yet familiar with this series, you have just discovered a tremendousteaching resource! Look at a score for Sight-Reading Builders and notice the comprehensive instructions for most effective use. Teach your band to read style and well as notes and rhythms! A wonderful resource!
