Holiday Classics for String Quartet is the prequel to the more advanced, "Christmas Traditions" volumes 1 and 2 by the same arranger (Latham Music). This collection of 9 holiday favorites is a level 2-2.5, or medium easy. It is accessible for students (can be played in first position with extensions), but has a more advanced harmonic structure with counter melodies/rhythms to challenge students, while at the same time keeping it interesting for the more advanced players. This collection also makes a good addition to the holiday gig collection. For 2 violins, viola, and cello. Titles include: Deck the Halls, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Adeste Fideles (O Come All Ye Faithful), Silent Night, Up on the House Top, Dona Nobis Pacem (Grant Us Peace), We Three Kings, Jingle Bells, and We Wish You a Merry Christmas.
