This volume contains four popular Christmas songs for beginning string ensemble with mixed skill levels. They can be played in any combination – as duet or trio, as quartet, or as string orchestra. There are parts for open strings only (arranged for both violin and cello) and for a lead part and accompaniment in first position. The lead and accompaniment parts include C# on the G string (third finger stretch) and, in one case, a C on the E string (fourth finger stretch).
This is the third of a series of easy ensemble pieces for mixed level players. You can see the other volumes at

Also, if you send me your email to
yoelepst@gmail.com, I will send you any revisions I may make to this volume free of charge.
These pieces are part of a more complete program for teaching strings in classes. You can read the entire first-year program in the books Playing Together Student Workbook and Playing Together: Teacher's Guide, both available on Amazon:

I can also easily rearrange this for other combinations of instruments, if you require. If you want to make changes to suit your special needs, send me an email and I will send you the source files for the pieces in Musescore format (a free and excellent music editing program) or in Music xml, which you can use with Sibelius, Finale, or virtually any other music editing program.
