Straightforward and easily playable arrangements of favorite Christmas songs: Savior's Lullaby, Come As a Child, Peace Has Come Down Tonight, Mary Did You Know and My Soul Will Magnify the Lord. Lyrics are included, and the songs are presented in both the keys of C and Eb.  You receive both keys.  Lever changes and accidentals are minimal.

For lever or pedal harp, here is an upper intermediate arrangement of Carol of the Bells in Am with double harmonics, lever and/or pedal changes. A nice arrangement, full sounding and moving. We Wish You has a moving left hand and it's in the key of F which is pretty easy to sing. It's a good and interesting arrangement that may take some a tad of practice, but worth it.

Our customers have always enjoyed Jo's straightforward arrangements for ease of playing.  This book contains, for most of the titles, easy and regular versions.  The easy versions don't necessarily have less notes, but in some cases the LH rhythm is simplified. There are bagpipe parts, scores for melody instrument, and additional information and resources.  All in all, a very useful book for Christmas performances.

 Tunes included are:

50 pages of very playable arrangements. Pieces are: Angels From the Realms of Glory, Angels We Have Heard on High, Bring A Torch, Jeannette, Isabella, Deck the Hall, Ding Dong!

This arrangement is accessible for both pedal and lever harpists. In the key of G, uses drop-2 voicing, includes lots of jazz chords, explores the entire range of the harp, and ends with a flashy gliss. A real audience pleaser! Intermediate.

Frank published the original version of Away in a Manger in 2001.  He has rearranged it and included more jazz chords, changed the key to D major so it can be played on lever harps tuned in C and Eb, created a new introduction, embellished the existing arrangement, and created a new more Frank ending.
