Christmas Music for Piano Book/CD

Hear some of the pieces on Soundclick

For me, playing music is all about finding pieces of music that you want to play over and over again. I don’t know a formula for what makes up a great piece, but I know it when I hear it. A good piece of music is not a page with notes hanging in a museum, it’s music you come back to ten years later and love it just as much as you did when you first heard it. Whether it’s your favorite Christmas carol, or one that is new to you, that is what I believe you will find in this book. Quite simply, these are beautiful arrangements of Christmas Music that will keep you coming back. So if you love playing music, and you are looking for music you will be playing for a lifetime, this is the book for you. Almost all of these pieces have variations which extend the piece and make them perfect for instrumental solos.

The pieces are beautifully performed by fellow musical misfit Jordane Lafitte. She plays like an Angel. You can learn more about her when you visit her at her site.
