Published by WigMusic (A0.1255510). In 1863 Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote the poem and then Calkin set it to music in 1872.  The poem has been set to several music treatments but the Calkin version has long been the standard and is the melody used in this arrangement.in 1956 Johnny Marks set the poem to a different melody and it was a big hit for Bing Crosby.  So now there are two versions of the song and both have been recorded by numerous artists.  It is the CALKIN melody used for this arrangement.it is a short melody so to make it a performance piece four completely different arrangements have been combined. This also makes it a good instruction piece as several techniques are needed to perform it.
