20 Really Easy Christmas Carols for Oboe is a collection of your favourite carols arranged simply in the easiest keys and range for early stage players.

We all know that tricky period when beginner oboe players have mastered basic technique and can play a range of around an octave and a half. At this point, I find lots of simple material is ideal to consolidate early successes. Playing simple Christmas carols is usually a big motivation to students. Now, with this collection of carols, students can join in with Christmas music-making and develop those reading skills at the same time.

These 20 carols are arranged in easy keys, going no lower than D

The carols are in alphabetical order and are as follows;

·     Away in a Manger

·     Deck the Halls

·     Ding Dong Merrily on High

·     The First Nowell

·     God Rest ye Merry Gentleman

Let It Be was one of the Beatles last recordings, released in 1970 when Paul McCartney had already announced his departure from the band. This full version of Let it Be is arranged in a suitable key and range for solo Oboe, and includes chord accompaniment above the stave.

This arrangement of Let It Be is suitable for musicians at an early intermediate level, though the short transcribed guitar solo might present a little more difficulty. The overall performance time is around three minutes.
