Contemporary,Film/TV,Holiday,Jazz,Pop. 9 pages. Donald Jay Smith Music #989052. Published by Donald Jay Smith Music (A0.1406003). I always adored this song from the Charley Brown series. While teaching at the high school level one year, I had an exceptional Cello section that had just dominated the November All-State auditions. I wanted to feature them in the next concert, but I couldn't find any appropriate holiday arrangements that featured Cello/Bass, or fit their ability level and something they really wanted to play in the available string ensemble repertoire. I suggested this among a few others, got to work on arranging and some of my students favorite arrangements resulted. Several pieces became requirements in the traditional Holiday Concert string ensemble preconcert. Every year audience members arrived early to get good positions to see and hear the SKHS string ensemble greeting the audience as they entered the foyer leading to the theatre. The initial two arrangements that started the "Cellobrate the Holidays" set were "Christmas Time is Here" and "You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch" that are available now. Watch for others to be added soon. I sincerely hope you will enjoy these arrangements as much as my students did!! Cello and Bass players rule! Enjoy the spotlight!!
