Carol of the Bells
on: December 07, 2009, 02:12:57 AM
So I've looked up and down for Carol of the Bells by William Joseph, and I can't find sheet music ANYWHERE! Anyone know where I can download it for free? :) All help appreciated!

I've never seen sheet music to this piece, but I can tell you from experience that it is extremely fun to improvise with.  Just take the simple melody lines and mess around for a while.  You will surely enjoy it!

I found Carol of the Bells while looking for christmas music on the interweb. (It is the only
x-mas song I'm willing to learn) You can easily find other versions of the song, besides the one by William Joseph. Just take the sheet music and augment it.

George Winston has published his own version which is beautiful and easy to play.  Check out his 'December' album.

Melody Bober did a wonderful version of this piece  she's published by FJH.  You should try it.
