God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Piano Solo Arrangement, Intermediate, Inspired by Lead Sheets

$5.00

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Everyone loves to sound flashy & impressive, right? Well, I do anyway! Maybe you do too?

This is definitely a “WOW” arrangement! Fast Right hand fingers, and an “easy to play in key”, make for a great combination.

This arrangement is inspired by my Method Book - 20 Favorite Christmas Songs: How to Play Lead Sheets. In the book, I use this carol to teach about playing a Left hand pattern of Octaves. Sometimes, less is more. Let’s use Octaves, in the Left hand to punctuate the important notes in the melody. Make sure to really draw out the Molto Rits and wait on the fermata….. People will be wondering, “what’s next?!”

Key: D Natural Minor

Time signature: 4/4. BPM = 222

Skill development: Left hand pattern as taught in my Method Book - 20 Favorite Christmas Songs: How to Play Lead Sheets. Study this arrangement to see how many other patterns I use, as well as: identify the chord symbols, what other chord tones are included? Fast scale like passages in the Right hand. Dynamic contrasts. This is a dramatic piece!

Level: Intermediate

How long: 50 measures. 2 Pages. 1:20 minutes performance time.

This is a Single License: One purchase - One copy. Thank for honoring the composer’s work by not sharing with anyone. Encourage them to purchase their own copy please!
