Description
Book SynopsisThe Faber Music Christmas Piano Anthology is an essential collection of the greatest Christmas songs and carols, specially arranged for solo piano, for the intermediate pianist.
Trade Review"I have recommended it to six of my students in the three days since the review copy arrived, which is unprecedented. And I anticipate that many more of my students will be enjoying this book in their lessons, home playing, and at my regular adult piano club for years to come. What impresses most of all is that all of the arrangements are both pianistic and genuinely musical.
As such, and given the scope and scale of the book, The Faber Music Christmas Piano Anthology is not only a stunning success, but fills a unique spot on the music shelf.
This is a book which has significantly raised the bar, instantly establishing itself as the new “must-have” Christmas music book. I predict it will sell like hot cakes (or artisan mince pies?) and it certainly deserves to – it’s absolutely brilliant! Outstanding."

"Overall, it is very well-presented, and the music clearly laid out and typeset. I would suggest that the majority of the pieces in this volume will suit pianists at Grade 4 and above, and with such a wealth of material included, this book will last pianists for many years to come. Faber are quite right to describe it as ‘timeless’. It is excellent value for money, and a must-have for pianists this Christmas."
