A Winter's Night (based on Silent Night)

Though “Silent Night” has been arranged for band many times before, this unique setting by Rick Kirby deserves special attention. An oboe solo (cued for alto sax) accompanied by piano sets the stage for an impressive rhapsodic approach that includes lush full ensemble passages with harmonic twists, solos for recorder (flute), bassoon (tenor sax) and euphonium. Rick's beautiful rendering ends with the band singing “Silent Night” in unison. Sure to become a holiday highlight.
