Christmas Overture for Band 管樂團 序曲 總譜

撒母耳-柯勒律治-泰勒的聖誕序曲於 1925 年問世。這首序曲最初由悉尼-貝恩斯（Sydney Baynes）配器，以《願上帝賜福予快樂的紳士們》（God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen）和《天使歡唱》（Hark the Herald Angels Sing）為主題。有人認為，這首歌是根據他為兒童劇《野百里香森林》創作的附帶音樂改編而成的。這首根據貝恩斯的管弦樂隊樂譜改編的樂隊曲目省略了原曲中發展性較強的中間部分，將演奏時間縮短了兩分鐘，同時保留了所有傳統頌歌的素材"

原文簡介:
Samuel Coleridge-Taylor's Christmas Overture appeared posthumously in 1925. Originally orchestrated by Sydney Baynes, it features God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and Hark the Herald Angels Sing. It is thought by some to have been put together from incidental music he wrote for a children's play called The Forest of Wild Thyme. This band arrangement, based on Baynes' orchestra score, omits the largely developmental middle section of the original, shortening the performance time by two minutes, while retaining all of the traditional carol material.
