    Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24
    As Performed by Trans-Siberian Orchestra
    Music by Paul O'Neill and Robert Kinkel / arr. Bob Phillips and George Megaw
    Item: 00-42217
    PRICE: $77.00
    Series: Pop Concert Band
    Category: Concert Band
    Level: 3 (Medium Easy)
    As seen in the mind-boggling Trans-Siberian Orchestra stage show! This thought-provoking medley of Christmas tunes describes a lone performer playing Christmas carols in the midst of the Bosnian war. The piece reflects the power, drama, and hope of a single musician in the midst of war, reflecting on the power of music to bring hope. The rock rhythm section contributes to an intense and very hip musical experience. Perhaps this can inspire a field trip to see the band live with lights and effects. (3:15)

      Cool, I played the bass clarinet solo my 8th grade year and freshman year (my school has 8th graders in the highschool band)
      Edit: I'm now a senior and I convinced my band director to let us play it again and I once again get the solo!!!

  • @jadedskies5215
    @jadedskies5215 Před 4 lety +33

    This song is fundamentally easy, it truly is musicanship where it’ll get ya. My band performs this overtempo (if you play this song in 1.25x, thats around the tempo we take it), just to keep it engaging to the audience. If you play this at this tempo, you better have clean articulations and incredible dynamic contrast otherwise the audience will get bored.

    • @epiccoolcomposertrs2052
