The Twelve Days of Christmas - Early Intermediate Piano Solo Sheet Music

Early Intermediate [Level 3-4] Piano Solo | Jazz Arrangement | Holiday/Christmas

Arrangement by Phoenix.

Often my students get excited about playing this familiar Christmas carol, but lose interest when they hear how repetitive this endless song can be!

That's why I created this quirky, half-jazzy, half-(tongue-in-cheek)-classical version of the holiday classic, The Twelve Days of Christmas.  This arrangement switches back and forth between classical idioms (straight eighth notes) and jazz-influenced interpretations of the melody (swing eighth notes).

Each "day" has its own character.  We almost make it through all 12 days, but in order to keep the audience's interest, when we get to the 8th day we fast-track it right to the 12th day for a fun and frantic race to the end of the song.

The piece would make a very engaging recital piece keeping audiences on their toes and allowing the performer to showcase different techniques and styles.  An early intermediate (Level 3B-4) student could tackle this challenge, or an intermediate (Level 4-5) player would find it a casual holiday endeavor.

All lyrics are written into the music so the player can follow along with the poem as they are playing.
