About This Collection
Description
This collection brings together accessible arrangements of holiday classics and contemporary works for school ensembles. You'll find popular titles like Scenes from the Northwoods for piano, A Holly Jolly Christmas for string orchestra, and John Lennon Holiday Medley for percussion ensemble. The repertoire spans grades 2 and 3, making it suitable for both developing and intermediate programs. Most titles come with both conductor scores and parts, ready for rehearsal and performance.
Highlights
Teachers return again and again to A Holly Jolly Christmas by Johnny Marks, arranged by Bob Cerulli for string orchestra, which appears in both full parts edition and conductor score versions. The John Lennon Holiday Medley, featuring work by Yoko Ono alongside Lennon's own compositions and arranged by Jeff Moore, works well for percussion ensembles. Roland Barrett's full orchestra arrangement of Lennon material gives conductors a Grade 3 option for larger groups.
Composer Spotlight
Roland Barrett taught bands for fifteen years before joining the University of Oklahoma's theory and composition faculty in 2001, where he now focuses on 20th century topics and serves as arranger for the Pride of Oklahoma marching band. His work on orchestral material reflects both his conducting background and his scholarly depth.
Bob Cerulli studied bass at the Curtis Institute and conducting at the College of New Jersey, later holding principal bass positions with orchestras including the Buffalo Philharmonic and Greater Trenton Symphony. His string arrangements balance accessibility with musicianship, drawing on his experience as both performer and educator.
