Do you ever get tired of elementary Christmas music that’s boring? Are you ready for some new, fresh sounding intermediate pieces for your students or even yourself? Well, today’s the day we are unveiling 2 BRAND NEW PIECES that solve these holiday issues!
1. Deck the Hall – elementary
I get tired of so-called elementary Christmas arrangements that have just the melody divided between the hands or a melody and a few chords or intervals.
So here’s an actual arrangement of Deck the Hall that sounds fun, mature, and will make any student feel accomplished! Full of dynamic energy, this arrangement of “Deck the Hall” is complete with not one, not two, but three glissandos (which students can easily play with index cards AND which you can leave out if you want). It’s sure to leave the audience smiling and your student feeling quite pleased with the huge sounds they coax from the piano!
Details:
Level: Early to mid-elementary – quarter, halves, wholes, sharps, 8va, glissando
Pages:Â 5 pages, 3Â pages of music, cover included!
Style:Â Playful, Joking
Format: PDF, instant download!

2. He is Born – intermediate
This arrangement of “He is Born” has the perfect pacing to uplift, encourage, and brighten any recital or church audience! The delicate introduction opens into a warm presentation with subtle rhythmic and harmonic shifts the push the momentum forward. The bold, bell like conclusion will continue to ring joyfully in listener’s ears. Musically satisfying for both the student and the mature performer.
Details:
Level:Â Mid to late intermediate
Pages:Â 7 pages, 5Â pages of music, cover included!

Hi, Wendy.
I used your Practice Abacus idea last week and saw great improvements with most of my students this week. yeah! Thank you for posting.
Also have been using the rhythm cups and find it is helping my students quite a bit.
