By Justin K. Reeve. By Justin K. Reeve. Arranged by Justin K. Reeve. Christmas,Holiday,New Age,Traditional. Score. 4 pages. Justin Kenlon Reeve #993168. Published by Justin Kenlon Reeve (A0.1410772).

Crafted in 1857 by John Henry Hopkins, Jr., “We Three Kings� stands as a perennial ode to the Nativity story, drawing inspiration from the biblical account in Matthew 2, where visitors from the East present gifts to the newborn Jesus. While the Bible does not specify their number or title them as “kings,� Hopkins introduced the imaginative trio — Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar — in his carol, each carrying symbolic gifts that have woven themselves into the fabric of Christmas lore.

The first of these gifts, gold, serves as a regal tribute, symbolizing Jesus as a king and emphasizing his divine authority. It’s a nod to the recognition of his elevated status. Frankincense, the second offering, not only possesses aromatic allure but also holds spiritual significance. In the biblical context, its smoke was thought to carry prayers heavenward, making it a fitting symbol for acknowledging Jesus’ divine nature and spiritual importance.

The third and perhaps most poignant gift is myrrh, an aromatic resin associated with burial rituals. This gift, laden with symbolism, foreshadows Jesus’ sacrificial journey and eventual crucifixion. Myrrh becomes a poignant acknowledgment of the mortality inherent in Jesus’ earthly existence, tying together the joy of his birth with the somber events that would unfold in his life.

The enduring appeal of “We Three Kings� lies not only in its musical composition but also in its ability to distill profound theological themes into a simple and evocative narrative. The carol has become a cherished part of Christmas traditions, resonating through generations as it invites listeners to reflect on the profound meanings woven into the fabric of the Nativity narrative.

By Michael Swedberg. By John Henry Hopkins Jr. Arranged by Terrence Niska. Christmas,Contemporary,Holiday. Score. 8 pages. Niska Music Publishing #726547. Published by Niska Music Publishing (A0.1125807).

The travels of the three wise men as they followed a star to see the newborn King was the inspiration for this arrangement. It starts with the right hand representing the twinkling of the stars in the vastness of the heavens, while the left hand provides the feeling of winds blowing across the desert sands as the magi set out on their journey. Soon the melody is heard in the right hand, though in a more stately rhythm than the traditional, more pastoral original. The left hand continues its sweeping motion unabated and drives the piece ever onward as the wise men draw ever nearer to their destination. The minor mood of the song is replaced in the chorus as the star of wonder shines down upon them, filling their souls with hope. Eventually they arrive at the stable and offer their gifts to the babe lying in a manger: gold, frankincense and myrrh. It is the last of these gifts which foreshadow the death of Christ and his burial in the stone-cold tomb. After they have spent some time praising their new-found king, the three wise men return to their homeland as the music follows them back across the desert sands to their homes in the East.

Composed by John Henry Hopkins Jr. Arranged by Aaron Lee. 20th Century,Christmas,Holiday,Instructional,Jazz. Score. 4 pages. J. Aaron Lee #721846. Published by J. Aaron Lee (A0.1120600).

This solo piano arrangement of the classic Christmas carol We Three Kings (originally titled, Three Kings of Orient) makes use of some dense and jazzy chords and a very slow, free tempo. It is a contemplative and laid-back approach to the carol. The chords themselves are dense, and there are a couple spans of a 9th, but otherwise this arrangement should be very manageable for an intermediate-level pianist. For more music from Aaron Lee, including more Christmas music, you can visit www.MusicOfLee.com.

This late beginner/elementary sheet music of We Three Kings takes the student along a journey of melodic interest in D minor. Musical elements in We Three Kings late beginner piano sheet music - Key of D minor - Left hand intervals (harmonic and melodic) - Right hand melody with occasional secondary notes - Basic rhythm (dotted half notes, half notes, quarter notes, eighth notes) - A melodic introduction - Finger numbers - A few ledger lines Teaching tips for We Three Kings sheet music Students love the chorus, where both the right hand and left hand play intervals together. However, some students get too eager and rush through this part. This will lead to a great discussion where fast is not always the solution to exciting parts. #wethreekings #christmaspiano #beginnerpiano #sheetmusic.

This Christmas carol is about The Three Kings that travel bearing gifts to see baby Jesus Christ and they are guided by the bright star in the sky. In the key of E minor, the left hand has some nice broken chords to play under the right hand melody. Then the chorus is and brighter and faster so prepare for the chords which happen to appear out of nowhere! Lots of practice to get these right first will help you speed up when you're ready.
