Jingle Bell Rock by Koe Beal and Jim Boothe

Jingle Bell Rock by Koe Beal and Jim Boothe
Arranged for Expandable Flute Choir by Ricky Lombardo
Published by Lombardo Music Publications
Includes score and parts

"Jingle Bell Rock" is a fun and jazzy holiday song that will be used for many years to come. The arrangement needs to be played using swing eighth notes in order to obtain the jazz feel. This can be a challenge for the traditionally trained musician since notes are not played as written.

Instrumentation:
Part 1 - C Flute 1
Part 2 - C Flute 2
Part 3 - C Flute 3
Part 4 - C Flute 4
Part 5 - Alto Flute
Part 5 - C Flute 5 (substitute for Alto Flute)
Part 6 - C Flute 6 or Bass Flute
Part 7 - Contrabass Flute

Minimum of 4 Flutes.

The Expandable Form:
      The concept of the expandable form gives a great deal of versatility in any flute choir situation. This arrangement works successfully using a quartet of "C" flutes on the first four parts. As instruments are added they expand harmonic support, reinforce a line of another part and/or introduce new counter melodies. The integrity of the arrangement is never compromised. It is only enhanced. The expandable flute choir arrangement has been widely embraced by flute choirs worldwide.
