iJingle Jingle

Description

Voice 1, Voice 2, Voice 3, Piano, Cell Phone — The idea for this arrangement of Jingle Bells came from my fellow composer and arranger Larry Clark, whose very successful iJingle for beginning concert band was published in 2015. What a great idea, for students to make the sound of sleigh bells with their cell phones and audience members can participate in the performance too! Although this choral adaptation cannot be performed with the concert band version, it has some humorous words to make it special for young choirs. Your singers will need to download a free sleigh bells app. It is important to try to find one that works in tempo with the music. Some of them have a slight delay and therefore are not as useful for this piece. Larry Clark tested many of them, and these are the ones that seemed to work the best: iPhone – Apple App Store; Android – Google Play Store; Santa Sleigh Christmas Bells 3D Sleigh Bells Ring Christmas Jingle Bells. In addition to Jingle Bells, your students will have an opportunity to sing the melody of Beethoven’s Ode to Joy, while phrases of Deck the Hall are played by the piano.Have some jingle bell fun singing this!S.K. This easy-to-learn holiday novelty piece has a unique twist: choir and audience members can download a free sleigh-bell app to use throughout the performance as the jingling bells! The piece includes nods to Jingle Bells,Ode to JoyandDeck the Halls, along with humorous lyrics for the iPhone generation. Sure to be pure fun for your students and audience and one of the most talked-about arrangements of the holiday concert season! Also available for SATB Voices (BL1234) and Two-Part Voices (BL938).
