I'm working on arranging two medleys on the piano for the holidays...
I'll play the keys... whatchya all gonna play, hmmmm?
Join in, OK? everybody sing! (Now, listen, it really doesn't matter what you believe in to play this music... it is beautiful music .... so? Who's in?)
Medley One- (Not totally holiday music, but some.)
1- Favorite Things
2- Greensleeves - What Child is This?
3- Scarborough Fair
4- God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
5- Favorite Things reprise
and
Medley Two
1- It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
2- Noel
3- Silent Night
4- O Holy Night
OK, so I need a flute player and a guitarist and some vocalists, maybe some percussive bells and xylophone... hmmm.... any other ideas?
Where's the band, man?
I'm playing our tune.......

oh yeah, i'll be in that vocal om for the first set.
next one will depend on how far the music carries me away.
might require a little spiced wine and a thorough fireplace mind

parsely, sage, rosemary and thyme...
remember me to one who lives there..
she once was a true love of mine...
raindrops on roses
and whiskers on kittens
god rest ye merry gentlemen
let nothing you dismay....

snow in the phar left? no way!
it is a miracle falling from the sky!
sing on, my friend... you and i..
and we'll get the little drummer boy to play!

mamma's in the basement
mixin' up some medicine
i'm on the pavement
thinkin' 'bout the govt
get rich get well
hang around the inkwell
look out kid, it's somethin' you did
god knows when but you'll do it again
it came upon a midnight clear
remember me to one who lives there
brown paper packages tied up with string
these are a few of my favorite
medleys
heh

or is that the maniacal elves
pissing on my grass hut
