O Little Town of Bethlehem (piano solo)
Same guy, same baggy yellow shirt, same fuzzy hair, same morning, same piano, recorded with same iPhone with no external microphone…different piece in my recent group of piano arrangements: “O Little Town of Bethlehem.” Sheet music available at SheetMusicDirect and SheetMusicPlus sometime after September 5th…check here back for links after that date. Yes…the familiar tune you know is in there, it’s just hidden in an inner voice all the time. This was my dad’s favorite Christmas song.
God Rest Ye Merry, Y’all
Another one in my series of Christmas carol arrangements for solo piano. The sheet music will be available on at SheetMusicDirect and SheetMusicPlus by September 5th or so. Check back here for links anytime after that.
Lo, How a Rose (piano solo)
Another in this series of mine of Advent and Christmas songs arranged for solo piano. The treatment is jazz harmonization with pianistic, classical textures and counterpoint. If you or your students are interested in playing them, the sheet music is available at either of these sites:
Pumpkins? Nah, Christmas Trees!
You folks with your pumpkins and Halloween in August, that’s nothin’! In the music publishing biz, it’s Christmas! I’m trying to get a few of my solo piano Christmas arrangements out there. Here’s the first. The others will follow in quick succession.
If you or your student would like a copy of the sheet music, it’s available at either of the following links.
