Listening now to the first track.....sounds great! Nice backing track Score! I can also see "someone" did some decorating.
ooh yea - seems the good ol' I-vi-ii-V works for a lot of good Christmas tunes. Got any more recommendation?
I recently played Jingle Bells over Douce Ambiance - definitely got some chuckles from the audience.
Thanks Jesse, Christophe and all the likes above....
Christophe, because most GJ tunes are pretty simple and Christmas songs are of a diatonic nature about 90% of major tunes will work with major Christmas tunes. It's been a while but what I probably did on those type of pieces was made a list, checked it twice , made sure what I played was not naughty but....sorry bad train of consciousness...I made a list that I could refer to as I was soloing so a glance down would remind of songs I could potentially put in as I was playing.
Here are a few songs...
Joy to the World
Oh Christmas Tree
Sleighride
Winter Wonderland
Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Let it Snow
Rudolf, etc etc, pretty much anything
minor is a bit more difficult as there are less tunes but some major tunes of course can fit as you know with Jingle Bells. Most minor Xmas tunes will work against Minor Swing or Douce etc, like God Rest yee Merry Gentlemen.
