Description

This studio-licensed elementary Christmas piano sheet music collection “Snowflakes Sing” includes 6 traditional and 4 original Christmas solos for early elementary piano students, approximately Level 1B. Click here for the pre-staff version.

This collection of Christmas solos includes a variety of familiar and original, secular and sacred, and serious and fun songs.

I’ve included 6 familiar songs that children love and want to play, including Up on the Housetop, Deck the Halls, and Jolly Old St. Nicholas.

This collection also includes 4 original pieces that I composed: Candy Cane Crunch, Christmas Magic, Gingerbread Cookies, and Snowflakes Sing.

Some of these songs are light and playful, such as Candy Cane Crunch, featuring lyrics that describe a child’s favorite aspects of eating a candy cane.

Others have a deeper message such as Go, Tell It On the Mountain and Snowflakes Sing, which celebrate the birth of Jesus.

I firmly believe that all students are musical.

Even if they don’t know how to play musically at first, they can be taught how to play musically.

We just need to provide them with the necessary information and tools at their level in ways that are easy for them to understand and use.
