The Christmas Book - Carols Arranged for Acoustic Guitar
Elias Barreiro

This book offers solo fingerstyle guitar arrangements of 35 Christmas melodies from around the world. To eliminate page turns, the settings are presented in separate standard notation and tablature versions. A few of these popular carols are written in dropped-D tuning. All are tastefully set in guitar-friendly keys with minimal fingering indications and a solid knowledge of traditional harmony and counterpoint. These arrangements would best be rendered by the intermediate to advanced classical or fingerstyle guitarist.
