It's 1897 in New York City. A young girl writes to the editor of the New York Sun questioning the existence of Santa Claus. The classic editorial response "Yes, Virginia" has charmed generations of families during the yuletide season. Robert W. Smith has set this inspiring text to music for performance at any holiday concert. Featuring a narrator, the band setting includes holiday favorites that bring these famous words to life. Why not ask your principal or superintendent to perform with the band this year? Suitable for performance by ensembles at many levels, "Yes, Virginia" reminds us all of the wonders of the holiday season as seen through a child's eyes!
