This delightful arrangement features colorfully orchestrated motives for each of the 12 days. Bruce Howden cleverly varies the motives so that a brilliant, changing facade is shown as they develop. While this arrangement is very interesting for even advanced groups to play, the ranges and technical demands are minimal, and can effectively be played with 3 flutes, 3 clarinets, bass clarinet, and saxes, or the entire woodwind section of the band.
