Difficulty: Medium-Hard (great for advanced high school, and college steel bands)
Forget everything you know about traditional 6/8 sea shanties—Joshua Garrett’s thrilling take on "I Saw Three Ships" reshapes the classic holiday carol into a high-octane driving funk anthem! This arrangement seamlessly blends punchy brass-style lines across the front pan sections, and a deep, locked-in groove for the lower pans and Engine Room. Garrett flips the classic melody on its head with tight rhythmic stabs, modern harmonic re-harmonizations, and dynamic builds that give every section of the band a chance to shine.
