Per Request: A Christmas Medley of My Too-Short Pieces

This one ought to be called "Merry Cease and Desistmas"…

Please don't bother listening to this on a phone. Use good speakers, or it will sound like the crap that normally comes out of phones. Seriously.

The craptacular MIDI file cannot be tweaked to be any better. It is what it is: a reference. It is not something you need to be inflicting on family or friends over your stereo. That would be vomitous.

Christmas on the Square - Parts

Christmas on the Square - Audio

NOTE: This is stupid-long, @ 11:30. Sorry. None of it is that hard, but collectively, this is going to be taxing. I have worked out two shorter versions, essentially using the first half with the intro and the We Wish You tag, and the second half with the same ends. Both work okay, but going into and out of the ends is not worked out very well. I will fix that over the summer. If they work out to be solid medleys, I will use We Wish You and the WWY intro on one of them, and use something else on the other, giving me two distinct medleys with no overlap.

Further, I have another medley of "old" carols and noels that I will post soon.

Cheers!

It has been Merry and Bright, but I am not crazy about that.

Sounds like a late-1960s composition for tuba, reel-to-reel tape, and bowed bedpan.
