Something fun for Christmas is Tim Mayfield's jazzy gospel arrangement of 'Mary Had a Baby.' Easily performed by choir, soloists and piano, the addition of the bass and brass puts a little more 'spice' intothis traditional spiritual. The gradual crescendos will lift the roof by the end of this exciting piece, and the rhythmic swing of the melody will cause toes to tap and fingers to snap. This season, announce the good news withreal flair.
