This unique arrangement of the famous macaronic carol will fill every heart with merry cheer!
This Christmas piece has its origins in Renaissance dance, and the happy spirit pervades the entire piece. James L. King III’s arrangement has a little bit of unorthodox jazz reharmonization, a little bit of traditional lyricism, and a little bit of straightforward declamatory hymn-style playing. Historical notes and facsimilies of the original are included.
Key: G Major
Mood: lyrical, moving, happy
Pedagogy: rolled chords, rubato, fermatas, caesuras

You won’t have to buy any bananas, you’ll GO bananas over this arrangement!
This collection has the famous jazz standard in lead sheet form (with verse and chorus) and six realizations from James L. King III for early to late intermediate players. Starting with just playing single notes in the left hand to playing full, professional-style arrangements, students will gain confidence and experience in playing from lead sheets.
