First Christmas Favorites - 10 Arrangements for Beginner Piano by Various Easy Piano - Digital Sheet Music

This collection includes ten familiar Christmas favorites: Jingle Bells, Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, We Three Kings, Away in a Manger, Good King Wenceslas, Go Tell it on the Mountain, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Hallelujah Chorus (from "The Messiah"), I Saw Three Ships, and Angels We Have Heard on High. These student-friendly arrangements feature large print and have fingerings clearly marked. This collection is appropriate for students in the primer or level 1 of most method books. There are no key signatures or accidentals, very simple harmonies, and no position shifts except for the very last piece (where they are clearly marked). See samples of each piece and listen to each piece performed in its entirety in the sample video. Want a slightly more challenging Christmas collection?
