Additional info/contents Wie könnte man in diesen schwierigen wirtschaftlichen Zeiten Kreativität und Erfüllung besser darstellen als in diesem urkomischen Arrangement des Klassikers »Jingle Bells«? Der Eingangsteil erinnert die Zuhörer daran, dass die Haushalte gekürzt wurden und das Orchester gezwungenermaßen die Ausgaben für Instrumentenkäufe reduzieren musste. Folglich ging das Orchester in einen Spielzeugladen und kaufte dort neue Instrumente wie zum Beispiel ein Kazoo, eine Blechtrommel, ein Spielzeug-Xylofon oder Mülleimerdeckel-Becken. Nach dem »Einstimmen« der Instrumente legt das swingende Arrangement richtig los und stellt die Spielzeuge als Melodieinstrument, in einer Improvisation oder im Antwortspiel in den Mittelpunkt. »Das nenne ich einen effektiven Ressourceneinsatz!«

In these challenging economic times, what better way to show creativity and compliance than this hilarious setting of the traditional Jingle Bells? The opening announcement reminds the audience that our budgets have been cut and the band has been forced to reduce the amount of new instrument purchases. As a result, the band went to the toy shop and bought several new instruments including the kazoo, toy drum, toy xylophone, and trash can lid cymbals among others. Following the 'tuning' of the toys, the swing setting kicks off and features the toys in melody, improvisation and response quotes throughout. 'Now that's what I call using our resources!'
