Santa Claus, aka Saint Nickolas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Père Noël, Weihnachtsmann, among many other names, travels the world spreading joy on Christmas Eve. Here we find him in England as he hears a band playing The British Grenadiers, passes near Westminster Palace (Big Ben Chimes and Pomp and Circumstance), hears a group of carolers (God Rest, Ye Merry Gentlemen), soars over a British naval vessel (Rule Britannia), stops by a church service (Hallelujah Chorus), and even comes near a holiday hunt (A Hunting We Will Go), hopefully not seeking reindeer. He then moves on his annual journey to other lands.A joyful tribute to the universality of the spirit of Christmas.Performance suggestions:Measures 9 and 11: Bell solo should project.Measure 30, etc.: Bell tone in trumpetsMeasures 46-49: Be sure that the melody in the clarinet, tenor saxophone, and horn is heard.Measure 57, etc.: Wood Blocks could be substituted for Temple Blocks (horse trotting effect).
