Two Holiday Classics (c/b) Piotr Ilich Tchaikowsky (Pyotr Peter Ilyich Iljitsch Tschaikovsky) / Arr. John O'Reilly

Two all-time favorite Holiday 'hits' are combined to create a delightful arrangement for your next holiday concert. Tchaikovsky's 'Dance of the Reed Pipes' from the Nutcracker Ballet features the flute section with a light accompaniment provided by the rest of the ensemble. A brief snare drum solo ushers in a rousing rendition of Handel's 'Hallelujah Chorus' from Messiah, his famous Christmas oratorio. Correlated with Accent on Achievement, Book 2, page 23.
