This book contains 18 holiday songs in easy arrangements. Not “simple,” but easy. The integrity and interest of each solo is there, just less notes, for the not-so-advanced player. If I couldn’t (in my opinion) make something sound good “easy,” I did not use it in the book.

The pieces include chord symbols and some fingerings. There is a short text on fingerings and brackets, and a primer on using the chord symbols. There is also a section of hints and tips on many of the arrangements, making this a “learning” book as well as a “playing” book. 

You need C below middle C and 24 strings to play this book. No levers needed.
