This fun traditional Christmas song is one of the oldest known secular carols. This arrangement for mid to late beginner is delightfully bouncy, filled with swing rhythms and staccato. The accompaniment is mostly made up of primary chords and inversions so that it isn’t too challenging while retaining a full and satisfying sound. The final line repeated 8va and 8vb gives a whimsical ending that is perfectly charming for a Christmas piano recital or other holiday performance.
