Christmas Day, Fantasy on Old Carols for Brass Quintet and Organ by Gustav Holst has been beautifully arranged by Mark J. La Fratta. Written by Holst in 1910 for the music students of Morley College, this work is absolutely delightful to perform and to listen to. It includes the following carols: 1. Good Christian Men Rejoice, 2. God Rest You Merry Gentlemen, 3. Come Ye Lofty, Come Ye Lowly, and 4. The First Nowell.

The instrumentation is for standard Brass Quintet (2 Trumpets in B-flat, Horn in F, Trombone and Tuba) and Organ. The arranger has modified the parts so that the work may be performed without Organ. However the music sounds at its best with the Organ as written. The arrangement is about 5-minutes in length and is appropriate for advanced performers.
