This clever, energetic setting of Jingle Bells has interesting repetitive patterns and a rhythmic ostinato which will prove to be a fun journey for the emerging tenor bass choir. A holiday programming MUST!.
Emerging tenor-bass choirs love to sing Jingle Bells, so it is my hope that this setting with limited ranges, repetitive patterns and a rhythmic ostinato proves to be a fun journey for the choir. As you work through the piece, here are a few guiding points: 1. The tenor ostinato throughout should be rhythmic and accented. Jing should go straight to the ng sound. 2. In contrast, the bass melody should be sung in a rhythmic, legato style. 3. The piece offers an opportunity to work melodic versus accompaniment balance between parts. 4. In a similar manner, in the call-and-response verse (mm. 29-39), parts should be equal in their dynamics. 5. Second tenors with a limited range should feel free to sing the cue notes.
