Weihnachtsmelodien

The first snow, the aroma of cookies, candlelight, Christmas markets and the happy anticipation of Christmas - the Advent and Christmas season is a wonderful time in which music-making plays a major role too. This volume contains the most popular Christmas carols, international Christmas songs and classical pieces for the Christmas season. The melodies can be played either with two clarinets, with clarinet and piano, with two clarinets and piano, or solo with CD. As a 'bonus', it also contains a trio and a quartet for ensemble playing with several clarinets. Short interspersed texts provide the reader with information on all aspects of Christmas, contemplative texts and stories evoke a festive Christmas atmosphere. 'Weihnachtsmelodien' [Christmas Melodies] is a perfect addition to Vol. 2 of the textbook 'Klarinette spielen - mein schönstes Hobby'. Suitable for the German system and the Böhm clarinet.

1-2 clarinets in Bb, piano ad libitum
