Product Description
If you like Buglers Holiday, then this is the arrangement for you! I
wanted to create an arrangement of Deck the Halls for trumpet trio in
the style of Buglers Holiday BUT I wanted to make sure it was playable
by the regular folks. All 3 trumpet parts have been carefully written
to be as playable as possible. There is certainly double tonguing in
this but its written where you dont change notes while doing it (will
make sense for trumpet players). I have written in rests for the trio so
the arrangement serves as a call and response with the trio and the
orchestra. This ensures that the trios chops wont get too tired and
that theres plenty of excitement.
This arrangement ends on a high C for the lead trumpet BUT unlike
Buglers Holiday, I give you a couple bars rest near the end to make
sure your chops are fresh. AND the last lick is a unison lick down low
so the last thing the audience/congregation hears is a great unison
double tonguing lick low.
This arrangement is written for concert band.
