I was wondering if anyone knows a good holiday collection or any good arrangements (Christmas and Hanukah) for traditional woodwind quintet instrumentation.

Luyben music carries some Bill Holcombe arrangements of classic holiday tunes arranged for woodwind quintet; they are nice arrangements and not difficult to play.

Go to www.sibeliusmusic.com. Robert Puff has some nice arrangements for sale that you can print right from your computer. I have personally purchased:

"Mid-Winter in the Northwoods" (his arrangement of In the Bleak Mid-Winter)
"Ding-Dong Merrily on High"
"The Holly and the Ivy"
"Boar's Head Carol"

He has several other arrangements out there and all the scores are available for your listening pleasure with Scorch (which is a free download if you don't already have it).

If you go to easy search and type in his name, a list will appear for you. You have to purchase the scores and parts separately (but the parts are only $1 a piece).

Rock on LISA! The Chamber Chicks leave no stone unturned to find good, practical arrangements.

Glad to see you found your way over to SibeliusMusic.

My highschool had an arrangement of "Home for the Holidays" for 4 soprano clarinets, an alto, and a bass, plus drums, guitar and piano. Alas, it's out of print... But it's a cool jazzy arrangement, if that's the kind of thing you're looking for. May be worth hunting down.
