Steinway & Sons: Piano Styling Of Classic Christmas Carols

Just in time for this holiday season, here is the latest edition of the acclaimed Steinway Library Of Piano Music series - Piano Stylings of Classic Christmas Carols. As in all the volumes of this superb collection, each setting has been crafted by top arrangers to sound gorgeous and professionally polished, yet all the music is astonishingly playable.
You'll get 20 piano renditions of the most popular Christmas carols of all time, with graceful and jazzy touches and the kind of lush harmonies you just won't find in ordinary sheet music. Each carol is a little showpiece, something you'd be proud to play for friends and family, because even though none are difficult to play they all sound spectacular! The notation is large and easy-to-read, and includes chord symbols. And, should you wish to sing along, all the lyrics of the carols are supplied in a special section of the book.
The arrangers are Preston Keys, former pianist of the Buddy Rich Orchestra, whose previous best-selling books include Simply Beautiful and It's Easy To Be Great, pianist and teacher Noreen Grey Lienhard, who, in addition to performing with many jazz luminaries and being featured on Marian McPartland's radio show, Piano Jazz, is author of Professional Stylings for the Solo Pianists and co-authored of It's Easy To Be Great, and piano star Phil Della Penna, who has arranged for film, Broadway and television, as well as serving as music director for Dinah Shore, Judy Garland, Jane Morgan, Margaret Whiting, and many others.
This book is a greatly expanded version of the previous collection, Beautiful Christmas Piano.
