The Joy of Christmas Banjo DVD and Tab Book by Ross Nickerson BanjoTeacher.com
presents the Hark the Herald Angels Sing, We Three Kings of Orient Are, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Oh Come All Ye Faithful, It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, Deck the Halls, What Child is This (Greensleeves), Jingle Bells, Silent Night, Joy to the World, God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman, and Away in a Manger. All arrangements are easy to play and learn. I wrote the arrangements so you could hear the melody clearly without having to be an advance player to get the satisfaction of playing them and hearing the melody. These types of songs are excellent for your development because you know the tune so well, you will instinctively improve your own ability to play and accent melody notes. I'm very proud of my arrangements. I think you will enjoy them and learn a lot from the DVD too. There are some slower songs, several in minor keys and 3/4 time tunes too. Many students have told me it's the best Christmas Banjo Book out there. Thanks, Ross Nickerson The DVD demonstrates each of the songs on high quality DVD video at either two or three speeds. The DVD also includes a Tablature book on a separate CDR that you print out yourself. Having the tab book on CDR saves from shrinking down the tab to fit in the box, it helps keep the cost of the DVD down and the full size tab book will be much easier to learn from. The tab book also includes learning tips on each song, the chords to each song written out separately and detailed tablature with right and left hand fingerings, a 32 page book.
