Good morning, all,
Perhaps you are already aware of this, but check out this Dallas Wind Symphony montage of Christmas favorites all played in a minor key!

And the album cover is right up my alley:
Merry Christmas, everyone!

That’s a great piece by David Lovrien. We played that a few years ago and it was very well received. There’s “Minor Alterations 2” out also but I prefer the first version.

A wonderful piece that was played at our Saskatoon Concert Band Auxiliary performance on Sunday, December 8th at Grace-Westminster Church here in the city. The audience loved it and I am sure it will be part of our program for next year.
