Merry Christmas from TCU  
featuring the faculty and students of the TCU School of Music

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM TCU

It is with great pride the TCU School of Music presents to you our first Christmas season recording featuring the talents of TCU’s faculty and student musicians. On this disc you will hear a mix of longtime seasonal favorites together with what we hope will become new favorites. From the opening work, John Giordano’s beautiful Bells Across the Snow, to the TCU Wind Symphony’s rendition of the well-known Sleigh Ride, the talents of wonderful TCU composers, conductors and student musicians surely will heighten your enjoyment of this magical season.

Featured on this recording are TCU faculty members John Giordano, Janet Pummill, Ronald Shirey, German Gutierrez, Curt Wilson, Blaise Ferrandino, and Bobby Francis, together with TCU music student Micah Bell, and members of the TCU Concert Chorale, Symphony Orchestra, Jazz Ensemble, and Wind Symphony. Joining them in several special performances is the Pummill Family (TCU faculty
member Janet, her husband Doug, and their children - TCU alums Amy, Sallie, Julie, and Patrick). Of special note are the original compositions and arrangements by faculty artists and composers John Giordano, Blaise Ferrandino, Curt Wilson, and Janet Pummill.

Special thanks from all of us in the School of Music are due to TCU Provost Nowell Donovan for his encouragement and support of this project. Without Provost Donovan this project would not havebeen possible.

Merry Christmas from the TCU School of Music.
