On with the Snow!
Three Christmas pop classics are seamlessly woven together in a delightful musical “change of pace” for your winter concert by Douglas E. Wagner.

Let It Snow,” the arrangement is designed to highlight your vocal soloist (or with optional instrumental solo for trumpet or alto saxophone).

One-Hit Wonders
Feature your beginning percussionists in this clever one-of-a-kind section feature by Mark Williams. Place the percussion instruments in front of the band, and watch the fun as the percussionists take turns parading through for their “one hit”. Then the music speeds up as they do it again until all players scramble into position to play the final note together. (Alternatively, you could also perform this piece using building staff/administrators as guest performers, with the regular percussionists serving as “coaches”.) A riotous show-stopper for that first-year concert program. Correlates to Accent on Achievement, Book 1, page 24.SKU: AL23280 -
