More about this title

Why we love this

This collection spans the full range of Christmas repertoire your singers and pianists actually need, from universally recognized carols to seasonal standards. Lombardo's arrangements work equally well for a pianist accompanying a vocalist or for a soloist working through the material independently. The chord symbols make this accessible for jazz and contemporary keyboard players while the full notation serves classical training.

What to expect

Familiar melodies meet fresh harmonic textures in these arrangements. Whether you're navigating the reverent simplicity of 'Silent Night' or the bouncing energy of 'Jingle Bells,' each setting honors the melody while offering pianistic substance that keeps accompaniment engaging through a full season of performances.

Who it's for

Pianists accompanying singers in recital, holiday concert, or studio settings; vocalists working on Christmas repertoire with a collaborator; and pianists building a personal Christmas performance library. This collection serves teaching studios, community choirs needing supplementary solos, and school music programs planning seasonal concerts.

How to get the most out of it

  • Balance vocal and piano parts by rehearsing with the accompaniment at performance volume first, then gradually adjusting the singer's dynamic relative to that baseline.
  • When multiple arrangements appear in this collection, establish a consistent harmonic language across selections by rehearsing them in sequence to train the ear.
  • Lean into the chord symbols as a tool for improvisation and personalization; these charts invite pianists to interpret voicings and rhythmic approaches rather than lock into a single realization.
  • Allow time for sight-reading practice before performance prep, especially if your ensemble is reading multiple unfamiliar arrangements.

How to use it

Draw from this collection to build a concert that showcases both holiday classics and lesser-heard selections, giving your vocalist or ensemble variety within a unified Christmas theme. Use individual arrangements as audition pieces, solo recital repertoire, or warm-up selections during rehearsal season when full ensemble focus isn't needed.
