We are back to our fully sequenced tracks vs. using styles. In case you can't tell our preferred way to put a tune together.

For the folks that prefer our traditional versions of Christmas tunes, these two arrangements may not be for you but invite you to take a listen anyway.

To All - Thoughts on the Sax lines? Roland or Yamaha? Which do you prefer?

This version is Yamaha Tyros 5:

This version is Roland Fantom G7:

And is it Jolly OLE St Nick or Jolly OLD St Nick? We have music showing it both ways?

Wow!!! Now this is coming from a Roland guy smile

Of the selected sax patches, the Tyros5 sax is more expressive. I preferred it over the Fantom sax selection. Both were played great.

Overall I liked the Yamaha offering more.

Donny you better get out and listen to some good sax playing grin
