EUTERPE Publishing presents a collection of carols that have been developed for people taking their first steps in playing the piano. Most of the pieces can be successfully performed after just a few weeks of learning, so even beginner pianists can enjoy playing Christmas melodies. The melodies have been harmonized in a traditional way, using as little sound material as possible, which makes them easier to master.

The arrangements use various methods of melodic line and texture techniques, such as playing the right and left hands alternately, parallel leading of the theme, uncomplicated imitations and two-part arrangements with occasional use of two-note chords. All this makes learning interesting and engaging. To ensure playing comfort, the pieces have been carefully fingered, which greatly facilitates the correct positioning of the hands and fingers on the keyboard.

The miniatures refer to various musical forms and genres, such as invention, waltz or oberek, so that each carol has a unique character. Articulation means and short introductions or endings suggested in some cases also serve this purpose. This is a great way to develop musical sensitivity and learn about different musical styles. These carols are the perfect way to bring a festive atmosphere to your home and make music together with family and friends.

The book has 28 pages and a paperback cover. It was published in 2013 by EUTERPE Publishing. The book format is 0x0 cm.
