Imagine the quiet, the anticipation, the tree, and all the lights as Christmas Eve becomes Christmas and you will have the feel of this beautiful rock ballad. As seen in the Trans-Siberian Orchestra stage show, The Christmas Attic, this lyric piece will add depth to any holiday or winter concert. A suitable arrangement for high school bands, the optional electric bass, electric violin, and electric guitar parts provide the perfect chance to feature electric instruments and more advanced players. If you havent seen TSO, check it out online and then share this one with your students. Perhaps include a field trip to see the band live with lights and effects. (4:15)
