A medium swing chart in the style of Basie and Hefti, you'll love this Goodwin adaptation of the wonderful holiday classic. Not a drum showcase, but the drummer has plenty of solo space beginning on brushes then to sticks and the intensity rises. There is a flute part on second alto (can be omitted) and a percussion part for vibes. Optional solo space for alto, tenor, trumpet and trombone, lead trumpet range is to written high E plus a nice sax soli round out this excellent chart. This chart is so nice, you'll want to play it all twelve months a year!
