I know that many members of the TH commuinity have seen most of this stuff before, but I recently migrated files from Dropbox to my own domain because dropbox now blocks the viewing of HTML pages. Now that Thanksgiving is upon us I figured it was kosher to send this list out. Hope you can use some of these files this season:
Holiday Brass 5tets: http://www.wwjdo.com/_sites/sheetmusic/xmas5tet/
Holiday Trumpet 4tets: http://www.wwjdo.com/_sites/sheetmusic/holidaytpt4tet/
Xmas Bones: http://uhaweb.hartford.edu/lichtmann/xmasbones/
**************
Additionally, here are two brass octets; transcriptions of Swingle Singers' arrangements:

| And again, thanks! Some nice arrangements. I've been meaning to try multitrack recording myself and I think that one or two of these will be just the thing this holiday. |

Loving it, Riddler! I'm going to have to up my production values, not to mention skills.

theRiddler, I remember hearing these last year. Don't recall if I ever weighed in on them.
Adding the percussion track to these does not always work IMHO. If you take a crappy trumpet quartet arrangement and add a crappy drum track to it, it does not add up to anything even remotely good. Even if it is executed well (which thankfully you did!) you are still left with crap. Well played crap, but crap nonetheless.
That said, I did think "Da Holly & Da Ivy" works well. I liked the (African?) beat, but it should have ended abruptly with the last trumpet note.
The "gangsta" track added to "Fraw$ty Like a Baw$ty" definitely gives it a different feel! One doesn't generally think "gangsta" when they think of "Frosty the Snowman." But that's probably just me.
You really sound awesome on "Jingle Bell Trap." Love the bends and scoops! The ricky-ticky percussion track makes it sound surreal somehow.
"Rockin' Around Da GiGMa$$ 'Chre" was helped enormously by the crowd mingling breaks, they sound like they are having a great time!
After listening to both "Rooodawfs" I can see that you missed your calling. You should have been a DJ at a rock station.
"We Wi$hoo a "Murry GiGMa$$" you didn't mess with, with the exception of the "race" comment and the holiday greeting at the end. WTF?
Again, are you a wannabe DJ?
