Want to add some live music to your holiday festivities this year? The Christmas Carol Kit is specifically designed to help you have joyful sessions of Christmas caroling, even if you're not an advanced pianist!
In this kit you'll find very simple arrangements of 16 historically loved Christmas carols. Each arrangement has melody, bass line, and chord symbols so you can play them as-is, or improvise your own accompaniment. You can even invite other instrumentalists to join in on the fun! Best of all, they're each in two different keys so you can better match them to the vocal range of yourself and your fellow singers!
There are also additional goodies including a coloring page, a recipe, and the stories behind several of the Christmas carols, as well as pages of just lyrics. Print extras and pass them around the room so everyone can sing along!
This awesome kit is available in two formats: A digital file or a physical print, spiral-bound book. If you purchase the digital version, you'll be able to immediately download it as a PDF file after purchase. You can then feel free to print or even read it right off of your device--Easy digital navigation is built-in to the product.
If you purchase the physical book, it will be printed on-demand by my publishing company, Lulu Press. This usually takes 3-5 business days, after which you'll receive a notification when it ships. You will also receive a free digital download of the lyrics sheets so that you can share them with friends to print or read straight off of their devices during Christmas carol gatherings!

This looks like the perfect way to get some folks around the piano for singing carols. The arrangements are simple enough and won’t take any learning time.
Beautifully done with stories of the hymns. I would recommend this to a beginner. But not at my level.
Hi Sally, thanks so much for your review and your kind words! My idea with this kit was to make something that was accessible to all levels of pianists (as long as they can read music). Beginners would play the arrangements as written, and more advanced players would use these more like lead sheets, working from the melody and chords to create their own arrangements that fit their level and preferences. If that's not your thing, I also do have some fully-written advanced arrangements of Christmas Carols (The Christmas Ready-Made Repertoire Plans), but those are not as easy to sing to! Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, and feel free to reach out to me if you would like some ideas on how to spice up those Christmas carols to better fit your level!
