Description
“Christmas Time is Here,” written by Vince Guaraldi for the 1965 animated television special A Charlie Brown Christmas, was famously composed in just fifteen minutes on the back of an envelope! Despite the quick turnaround, the song has since become a beloved holiday classic.
This arrangement by L.C. Harnsberger preserves the original harmonies and warm holiday spirit of Guaraldi’s instrumental recording, and is thoughtfully scored for intermediate woodwind quintet. With the melody passed among all players, each part is engaging and enjoyable to play. This arrangement is an ideal addition to your next holiday concert.
