Review:
Pull out your cowboy hat for this one! "Jolly Old Saint Nicholas", "Angels We Have Heard on High", "Jingle Bells" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" are interspersed in this hoedown romp. Throw in a whip, woodblock, cowbell, and (of course) some jingle bells; and you feel as if you are right in the middle of a western Christmas! This piece is superb for a secular or school Christmas concert. Arranged in G Major, measures total 65.
