Christmas in August!

Post by foustmusic » Sat Aug 23, 2008 1:51 am

Another forward...this time for my version of "Joy To The World/Troika." I'm sure all of you are familiar with "Joy To The World", and the "Troika" tune comes from Sergei Prokofiev's "Lieutenant Kije" Suite. I had a Mannheim Steamroller-esque sound in mind when putting this tune together. CHRISTMAS SONGS IN ANY STYLE are wanted by an established Independent Music Publisher. This Publisher has tons of Film/TV placements and has signed dozens of TAXI writers. He's open to traditional Christmas songs or current/contemporary Christmas songs, but he's specifically looking for unique arrangements - not exact replicas of the original version. For instance, if "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" is traditionally recorded with an organ, you might want to submit an acoustic guitar version. The possibilities are wide open here, but he really wants to find some very unique approaches to familiar Christmas songs.http://www.taxi.com/bradfoust
