I Saw Three Ships
I Saw Three Ships
Halstenson, Michael
for Brass Band
Think of the three wise men entering the town of Bethlehem, some say in ships, others say on camels. Whatever the case, from the opening horn fanfare to the lilting tune this arrangement for brass band adds a bit of color and humor to the holiday season.
