Product Description

Perfect for a Christmas party or recital, this is a miniature version of the loved classic in instrumentation only--all the parts are represented, and the piece is full-length (about 3 minutes).

I used pizzicato at the beginning, bringing the volume down to a minimum (maybe important when programming this piece). Then, adding little by little, passing the melody around a little, the piece builds and develops like the original.

Although I arranged it with a string quartet in mind, it could be played by a string orchestra--all the brass and woodwind parts are covered.

My string playing experience is limited by a hobbyist experience, and only on violin. Hundreds of hours of score study are no substitute for actual playing time! So, comments and questions are welcome!   Furthermore, due to unforeseeable technical problems, parts do not always print to PDF correctly, so please let me know of any problems with printed parts, and I can send you an updated version.  My e-mail is klazzkeys@aol.com
