The well-known English melody gets new life in this arrangement that alternates between bossa nova and swing. It can be used any time of year and also works well on your holiday concert as What Child is This?, which uses the same melody. A recurring Birdland-style groove keeps the energy moving forward. No solos in this one — just straight-ahead ensemble writing!
