  1. Linda Wilson

    “We Wish You A Merry Christmas” cup drumming was a big hit on our Christmas recital.

  2. Helen Haynes

    We performed “We Wish You” for our recitals and my students lead the audience with the cups, while I played. They learned the rhythm with Edwin Gordon’s “Du Da-ta Di” so it was easy. The piece was a big hit!

  3. Janette Rupert

    I used this piece at a retirement facility this year, and the audience participated, and really seemed to love it! It was something totally different than anything I’ve done at the end of a recital, and it was a big hit!

  4. Kim Oien

    Wendy, I used the audience participation cup tapping We Wish You A Merry Christmas song in my recital, and even though the student playing the music did not do his best, it still worked great! The audience followed me and we all stayed together. It was great fun! A few students played some other pieces of yours too. I love how they get to use the whole piano and sound so big even as beginners. Thank you so much for all your creative resources.

  5. Kristin Dunn

    I used the Stinky Stockings game and the cup tapping We Wish You A Merry Christmas at my Christmas party/recital, and both were a hit! Thanks so much!

  6. Donna Shinn

    We Wish You a Merry Christmas was such a hit at my Christmas recital! It was a great way to end the recital and wish everyone there a Happy New Year.

  7. Mary Biron

    All of Wendy’s music is a hit with my students, and they really look forward to cup tapping every couple of weeks. “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” with the cups was a big hit this year!

  8. Dorothy

    At the end of my Christmas Recital this year I used Wendy’s Nutcracker Rhythm Cup Explorations. The parent LOVED that part of the program and the students had so much fun doing it. We had played Nutcracker duets at the last Christmas recital so everyone was familiar with it.

    And then, we ended with We Wish You a Merry Christmas rhythm cups. I passed out cups to the parents and all attending. What fun they had playing a cup duet with the students. One parent took off and made his own rhythm–what a super way to end a great recital and even make it greater! Thanks, Wendy!!

  9. Kelly Jenkins

    This year, I did this piece at the winter recital. HUGE, huge hit! I am definitely doing this at our recital from now on. Total win!

  10. Daly

    I got to use “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” with cup tapping for a group class, and it was a lot of fun 🙂

  11. Kelly

    Total win to do this song with the audience at the winter recital – total hit! Everyone enjoyed getting involved and half way through, got the audience up on their feet and moving, which helped them stay more engaged for the rest of the recital

  12. Chara
