The sound of claves, maracas and cowbell provide that Latin flavor to the song. The mallet percussion instruments provide the melody and accompaniment with a bit of syncopation to really set the mood. Great for a Christmas or Holiday concert for a percussion ensemble or as a percussion feature at any band concert. Click here to listen to the piece. Click below for samples of the sheet music,
