The traditional popular Christmas carol sheet music songbook for guitar, offers a compilation of 50 Christmas carols most of which are part of the musical tradition. A very good resource to prepare an activity for the Christmas party at your school.
The Carols for Guitar songbook offers:
- The complete lyrics of all the Christmas carols, a resource that we can use to develop skills in the language area
- The main melody with the syllable letter below each note.
- The chord chart for guitar.
- The tabulation score in parallel with the note score, a fact that encourages the learner to develop two ways of reading music: the standard score and the tabulation, and also allows him to make the correlation between both scores.
Easy level: Most of the carols are of a very easy level to play, which favors that the learner can feel more motivated in learning the instrument once they achieve success.
Although it is a songbook (not a method), it is a great musical resource for guitar teachers. Your school should definitely have this resource.
