Sheet Music for Brass Band

Presentation by the composer: This unusual arrangement of the Christmas staple began as a joke around a dinner table. I mentioned to my wife that i was asked to write an arrangement of "Carol of the Bells" for the Spiritual to the Bone III CD. I jokingly said I was going to write it in 5/4 and she asked what that might sound like. I sang the first lick and we all started snapping our fingers and bobbing our heads like we were in a jazz club and soon we were singing all the licks in 5/4. I should include the whole family in the arranger´s credits.
