Christmas Carol Variations for Piano Duet, Book 2 is a second collection of fun variations based on 10 well-known Christmas carols that I originally wrote for 2 pianos, 4 hands. These are all available individually, but buying all 10 together gives you nearly 70 pages of music to enjoy at a price that means you are basically getting 10 pieces for the price of 6.
(Also available as a printed book through www.simonpeberdymusic.com)

The mp3 is of "Wassail Hiccup and Trip up"

This collection includes six creative arrangements for piano duet (one piano, four hands) to celebrate Christmas at the keyboard. From the tender emotions of "Mary's Lullaby" to the jazzy energy of "Go Tell It on the Mountain," this delightful variety of Christmas carols has something for every holiday occasion. Primo and secondo parts are fairly well balanced in difficulty and involvement, and are accessible to the intermediate pianist. 73 pages. To conserve space and enhance readability during performance, the book is formatted with primo and secondo parts separated onto facing pages. If you're interested in an alternate layout with the parts stacked together on each page (you may find this easier for learning the music), contact the publisher after purchase using the website link below.
