Old MacDonald's Christmas Book

Old MacDonald's Christmas Book is a collection of Christmas songs and carols for recorders and voices that everyone can enjoy. All the tunes can be both sung and played - some additional recorder phrasing marks have been added to the vocal parts to encourage expressive playing. Many of the traditional carols have also been given descant parts, giving recorder groups their own musical part to play in carol concerts and school nativity plays.

Easy keyboard accompaniments are also provided so that the Christmas songs can be enjoyed as concert pieces or used for music-making in the home.As with all the Old MacDonald Recorder Books the emphasis is on enjoyment. All the recorder partsare easy to play, with songs and carols specially chosen to help pupils realise that playing the recorder is a very special activity.
