"Christmas by the Numbers" is a medley of three seasonl tunes, namely, The First Noel, We Three Kings and The Twelve Days of Christmas. Barnett takes the melodic content from all three songs and overlaps them to form a new kind of holiday composition. This arrangment involves some role play, as the performers pretend to not be able to find up-beat pulse. Planned miss-entrances of melodic motives will have your audience enjoying the performance of this new take on three holiday classics.
