Stille Nacht (Silent Night)

A beautiful series of harmonic variations on the well-known Christmas favorite, "Still Nacht," or "Silent Night," is developed with modulations through several different keys, featuring the individual instruments in both solo and ensemble roles. The music is not technically difficult, and the chromatic harmonies provide an opportunity to work on the expressive aspects of this evocative and lyrical piece. Arranged for saxophone sextet (SAATTBar).
