    5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Collection of Arrangements, November 1, 2011

    This review is from: Christmas Carols for Easy Classical Guitar (Easy Guitar) (Paperback)
    I've been looking around for a great collection of Christmas songs in solo fingerstyle, and so far this one is my favorite. It is an extensive collection of all the standards, and the arrangements are very appealing despite being relatively easy. A few observations that set this collection apart:

    1) It includes a CD. This lets you hear the arrangement before you start trying to learn it. I don't know why so many fingerstyle songbooks omit this, but for me, it's a must.
    2) The songs are easy enough to learn and memorize relatively quickly. These aren't virtuoso pieces, but then I really don't have the desire to work up a virtuoso piece just for Christmas... after all, I won't play it after the 25th. If you want virtuoso pieces, check out Mark Hanson or Craig Dobbins' offerings.

    A good standard selection with simple arrangements for preparing a repertoire for the folks on Christmas eve around the tree. I can get these tunes memorized with plenty of time to spare before 12/24.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good Music Book/Refresher and To Learn, February 1, 2012
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    This review is from: Christmas Carols for Easy Classical Guitar (Easy Guitar) (Paperback)
    I purchased this for my Dad who plays the classical guitar. He already plays pretty well and has done so for many years, since I was little. Even though this was sort of a refresher for him, he found the book to be easy to follow, and not at all boring, as he is an advanced guitarist. Also the songs are all really well known. He is enjoying it very much.
