Once on a spooky Christmas eve, as Santa was making deliveries, a fog rolled in and howls rang out, and Santa landed on a 'haunted house'! This creative premise leads to a spooky-cool treatment of the Christmas favorite, 'Up on the Housetop.' The piece includes an optional narrator part (which reveals a surprise ending), and uses 'toy' percussion instruments to great effect. 'Up on a Haunted Housetop' is an unexpectedly delightful piece to program for your winter concert.
