The other night at my daughter’s high school band concert I heard an absolutely fun medley of Christmas carols set in minor keys and mashed up with well-known classical music. David Lovrien (the arranger) is an evil genius! This video is not the high school band I heard.

Perfect! Fits my general mood to a tee!
He did a wonderful job. This could become my favorite holiday carol mashup yet. Would have loved to hear Emma’s concert.
Her band didn’t play this piece. But stay tuned. We had three concerts this week, which may be finding their way to my private, invite-only YouTube channel.
