More about this title

Why we love this

This collection strikes the right balance between accessibility and genuine musical repertoire. The mix of sacred carols, pop standards, and novelty songs means every player finds something worth learning, whether they're drawn to reverent tradition or infectious fun. Eighty pages of carefully selected material keeps the progression manageable while building a holiday performance library that genuinely impresses.

What to expect

A genuine Christmas songbook that respects both timeless carols and modern holiday favorites. You'll move between the reverent quiet of "Silent Night" and the playful charm of "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer," with enough variety to keep a holiday performance program interesting for both you and your audience.

Who it's for

Ukulele players at the beginning stages who want to develop a working repertoire of holiday music they can actually perform. The combination of notation, TAB, chords, and lyrics makes it accessible to players learning to read while still offering enough substance to keep intermediate players engaged.

How to get the most out of it

  • Study the suggested strum patterns before playing through a song; they shape the character and help you avoid making every tune sound identical.
  • When TAB appears for instrumental figures, use it to learn those passages solidly rather than skipping over them, as they often carry the melody or establish the song's style.
  • Sing through the melody and lyrics first without worrying about the ukulele part, so the song's phrasing becomes natural before you coordinate hands and voice.

How to use it

Build a holiday concert around these selections, pairing sacred and secular songs to create a full program. Solo performers can choose standout tracks for recitals or community performances, while ukulele ensembles can select songs that work at multiple difficulty levels within the same collection.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading melody, chords, and TAB simultaneously
  • Playing strum patterns and adapting them to different song tempos
  • Coordinating singing with instrumental accompaniment
  • Interpreting suggested strum patterns as stylistic guidance
  • Building fingerstyle and instrumental figures from TAB notation
