Summary of This Score

From the "Flex-Ability" series and arranged by Victor Lopez, this score meets the needs of heterogeneous ensembles where beginners and more advanced musicians share the same part. Each piece is presented as a score in four stacked parts: each player chooses the line matching their level, which facilitates setup, voice balance, and student autonomy. The most accessible part (level 1/2 to 1) is intentionally limited to simple note values (whole notes, half notes, dotted half notes, and quarter notes, with corresponding rests) to reinforce rhythm and sight-reading.

The collection brings together 11 holiday classics, perfect for Christmas concerts, auditions, and year-end events: Jingle Bells, Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, (I'm Gettin') Nuttin' for Christmas, Frosty the Snowman, I'll Be Home for Christmas, Angels We Have Heard on High, Joy to the World, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Auld Lang Syne, as well as a Chanukah medley (Chanukah / I Have a Little Dreydl). The set offers an immediately recognizable repertoire while remaining comfortable to work on thanks to progressive and flexible ensemble writing.
