Description
Add a touch of holiday mischief to your program with Krampus on the Rooftop by Randall Standridge. Set in C minor and 4/4 time, this Grade 1 work brings the legendary Christmas figure to life with a dark, playful twist on the familiar tune Up on the Housetop.
Foreboding and fun narration sets the stage as the story unfolds, supported by rattling chains, sudden musical surprises, and colorful percussion effects. Bass drum "footsteps," whip cracks, and even a few screams add theatrical flair while remaining accessible for young players. Fun, engaging, and just a little eerie, Krampus on the Rooftop is a memorable addition to any holiday concert.
