English.

Set as a bright swing, and originally arranged for the WDR Big Band (Germany), Richard DeRosa's arrangement of the traditional Christmas carol "Angels We Have Heard On High" is an adventure from beginning to end! Reminiscent of Neil Hefti's arrangement of "Cute" for the Count Basie Orchestra, DeRosa starts off with some interplay between the horn melody and drums. Replace the first "Gloria" section with a great bebop sax soli and this arrangement already has audiences waiting to hear what comes next! Soloists include drums and piano or guitar. 5-4-4-4.
