O Holy Night inspired by a performance by Natalie Grant (from her Believe CD) custom arranged for traditional big band (no doublings) starting in the key of Ab.

Note that this arrangement is down from the original key starting in B; one thrid lower. Parts include: Vocal solo, Piano/with cues for bass and optional organ; piano/vocal chart; drums (percussion – tympani/toms, wind chimes, cymbals); alto sax 1, alto sax 2, tenor sax 1, tenor sax 2, baritone sax, trumpet 1, 2, 3, 4; trombones 1, 2, 3, 4. with 5443 Big Band accompaniment. Note that there are NO doublings or strings on this arrangement.

This has a more traditional neo-classical style and does feature the pianist in addition to the mezzo vocal. Be sure to the listen to the midi audio of this arrangement and view the sample score.
