Show trax for "Have . . . Merry Little Christmas" and "Gettin' In the Mood for Christmas"

Hey ladies,  here are the Show trax for a couple of songs. 

You will notice in "Gettin' In the Mood for Christmas" that on the Vocal track they have changed some of the words.  I believe we will be singing the words as written in our music, however, . . . . . we will be singing the music as accompanied on the Instrumental track.  You will notice that from measure 38 on the bottom of page 6 until the pick up to measure 54 on page 8 have been cut.  There are 4 measures that are the same accompaniment as at the first of the song that have been added in their place.  Only the Altos have to worry about coming in at the right time :)!  The ending on page 15 has also been changed.  We will write that out for you and have it for rehearsal next week.  

In "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" there are also some timing "liberties" taken.  Since we will be doing this with the Show trax, we will also be adjusting to those timing changes.  We will watch our directors and follow them.
