Enjoy Playing Guitar: Christmas Crackers is a winning collection of traditional carols and popular Christmas songs for young classical guitarists - playing solo or in groups. With separate melody parts and flexible accompaniments for up to four players, this versatile collection caters for mixed-ability groups and one-to-one lessons. The carefully arranged material (for players up to Grade 3 approximately) provides suitable technical challenges, and percussion and other effects to motivate young learners. Best of all, it contains tunes that children know and love.
It all works rather well; the simple and predictable harmonisations fulfil their function, there's a lyric for singing students, and even chord symbols and a concluding chord-chart for those lessons when a non-reading chord-player joins the ensemble . . . any fingering presented does so just when the student would pose a fingering enquiry. This is a good resource which teachers of group lessons should know about. It would be a useful book to keep in the briefcase for this time of year when headmasters start to ask for Christmas items for the school concert. I can, without reservation, pass this book as 'fit for purpose' and I recommend it to you. * Colin Tommis, egta.co.uk (European Guitar Teachers Assocation), October 2018 *
