The Little Drummer Boy
Turn your drummer loose! If you’re looking for a feature for your drummer, you found it with Little Drummer Boy.

The Little Drummer Boy
Introducing a slow, funky version of “Little Drummer Boy” that’s very clever with the initial melody line played by bass trombone and bari sax. The tempo is 110 BPM, the chart has a soprano sax lead, and solo space for all saxes, trumpet 4, and trombones 1 and 2. The lead trumpet range is up to high A-flat. A very cool Gordon Goodwin chart!

The Rockin’ Drummer Boy
First the groove is established, then the clarinets introduce this familiar melody, followed by the rest of the ensemble joining in, with the percussion and low brass rocking in the background. A wonderful holiday choice for your first year ensemble to play after only a few months of instruction! (1:53)SKU: AL29551
