Ding! Dong! Pennine Music starts the Christmas Jingle Bells

There is a great opportunity to do your Christmas shopping early thanks to new works form Pennine Music for the festive season.

Pennine Music
  Pennine Music has already opened its Festive catalogue for eager customers.

Pennine Music has announced that their new 2016 Christmas Music publications are now available for purchase.

New to look forward to

MD Gavin Somerset told 4BR: "Every year, bands across the globe strive to bring something different to their Christmas concerts to ensure their audiences have something new to look forward to.

This year sees five new fantastic works released that whilst remaining festive, are just a little bit different from the standard repertoire normally heard at Christmas time."

Latest titles

'The Sleigh Race' is just one of their latest titles that give bands the chance to add some comedy and humour to their concerts.

For those quieter moments, 'A Christmas Lullaby' allows them to show off their lyrical playing a stunning setting of a traditional French carol.

Meanwhile, euphonium soloists will relish the chance to perform a new arrangement of 'Ding Dong Merrily' from the pen of Darrol Barry, whilst a new concert opener, 'Jingle Bell Fanfare' is the perfect way to open any festive concert.
