SPIKE MAIDEN M�LLER has added two new pieces for Christmas: "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel", for woodwind quintet and "He is born, the Divine Christ Child", set for flute, clarinet, or bassoon solo with piano. Spike's beautiful harmonizations work well with this woodwind quintet. The solo piece is easy to play and an effective arrangement. Click here for score and audio samples.
Also for your holiday season playing is a set of 6 pieces written by Franz Liszt, "Christmas Tree Suite". Although several are Christmas Carols , they are more character pieces about holiday activities. An especially pleasing set of pieces for the holidays. There are settings for

Next month's Freebie Download: "Le Coucou Rondeau" (The Cuckoo Rondo) by Louis Claude Daquin set for woodwind duets.
Player's hint of the month:
In an orchestra the pressures are very much those associated with being part of a team....soloists are more noticeable, but the rank-and-file players are also important team players. (For second players) ...blending with the tonal character of different players is a great art." Nicholas Cox, "The Professional Clarinettist"
Have fun playing!
Sincerely,
John Gibson
