White Christmas (M.Sweeney)

“White Christmas (M.Sweeney)” is a big band arrangement credited to arranger Michael Sweeney, with original composer Irving Berlin. The catalog metadata identifies the ensemble as Big Band and lists the difficulty as medium. No style is specified in the supplied information, so this entry does not assign a stylistic category beyond the documented ensemble designation. The arrangement is documented as a 46-page publication with individual parts confirmed. A conductor score is not confirmed in the available metadata and is therefore not represented as included. The listed instrumentation provides parts for a standard large-ensemble setup: Alto Saxophones 1 and 2, Tenor Saxophones 1 and 2, Baritone Saxophone, Trumpets 1 through 4, Trombones 1 through 4, Guitar, Piano, Bass, and Drums. For directors and librarians, the catalog information supports planning around a medium-difficulty big band work with 17 listed instruments or parts. The title and credits distinguish the arrangement from the original composition, while the confirmed part listing helps identify the required section coverage.
