Jingle Bells arranged by Florian Klinger

The absolute Christmas classic is interpreted here in swing style by three to five players. For the bass part, you can choose between an easy and a demanding one. It is important to alternate between the swung and the straight eighth notes. The chosen tempo can be adapted to the level of the players. The bass part can also be played on an A marimba.
