Description

First introduced in 1953 by Eartha Kitt, Santa Baby stands out as one of the most playful gems in the holiday repertoire. Over the decades, many artists have reinterpreted it — including Michael Bublé, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Dolly Parton, and even Miss Piggy — each bringing a different balance of glamour, humor, and style. Even with its tongue-in-cheek approach, Santa Baby offers a moment of wit and warmth amid holiday celebrations.
This arrangement for full orchestra with mezzo-soprano soloist and male voices recreates the jazzy 1950s sound of Eartha Kitt’s original recording, enhanced by the richness of a full orchestra.
