Easy Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1138014 Composed by Various. Arranged by Nicholas Palmer, ASCAP. Christmas,Holiday,Instructional,Religious,Traditional. Score. 35 pages. Nicholas D Palmer #738288. Published by Nicholas D Palmer (A0.1138014). Twelve traditional carols have been transcribed and arranged for adult piano students who are in their first few months of playing the piano and reading music. Children will be able to play all the melodies and most of the two-part arrangements without physical strain, but there are other piano methods designed specifically for young pianists’ needs that were not taken into consideration for this collection. The carols come in two versions, one with melody only and the other with an independent left hand part. Many of the melody-only scores are able to be played with just one hand position. For the two-part scores, both hands will need to shift. The left hand parts have been written so that there will be no more than five adjacent ascending or descending notes before the direction of the line changes, allowing for just small shifts in finger or hand placement.
