These 25 traditional Christmas Carols are in a beautiful new edition, arranged by Dave McKeown, a fully qualified and highly experienced teacher and performer. This collection offers something refreshing and different from the most commonly sung and played carols which are available elsewhere from my homepage. There are familiar melodies amongst the less well-known; ’Child in the Manger’ goes to the music of ’Morning Has Broken’, and ’English Country Gardens’ provides the melody for ’Christmas is Coming’.

This collection includes

• simple melody
• full lyrics in English
• chord symbols for guitar, keyboard or piano accompaniment.

There are versions available for most other woodwind, brass and string instruments, and these are all compatible keywise. So if you are organising the music for a carol concert in school, church or home, whatever instruments you buy for, the music will be in the correct key. The chosen keys are also within comfortable singing range.
