Really fun!
This book is essentially a best of Mannheim Steamroller's Christmas music. Its song list was actually chosen by fans via voting on the official website and follows the track-list of the same-named album. Some of the songs are easier than others. The main challenge in these pieces is rhythm as several are more rock versions of classic carols. Because much of Steamroller's music is made with electronic sounds and specific instruments, the same sound does't always carry over to the piano, but the songs are are still very fun to play. Perfect to get anyone in the Christmas spirit.My favorite Christmas album for piano by far.My favorites (and also among the easier set) to play: Veni Veni, Stille Nacht, and Christmas Lullaby.
