The Christmas arrangement giveaway is back. I’ve got a gentle jazz reharmonization of the beautiful Gustav Holst melody, “In the Bleak Midwinter.” The coda is a haunting, meditative bass and piano figure.
Like the other Christmas arrangement giveaways, this one comes from my trio’s fun collection of Christmas music, “A TRI-FI CHRISTMAS.”
Listen to the TRI-FI version: In the Bleak Midwinter
This arrangement is a lead-sheet – what we used in the studio – the beautiful melody reharmonized with some lush jazz chords.
Hey Matthew, now I have #5 – very nice, thank you – but how did I miss the first 4, maybe just not paying attention! Can I still get them?
