This elegant arrangement blends the familiar Christmas carols It Came Upon a Midnight Clear and The First Noel. The melody is passed to all sections of the orchestra with delicate pizzicato accompaniments, giving developing players the opportunity to work on slurs, dotted rhythms, legato phrasing, and tone production in the key of C major. A peaceful interlude builds toward a restatement of the opening First Noel theme that crescendos toward a triumphant finale. A wonderful selection sure to be a joy to perform in your winter concert.

This collection of piano duets in popular styles aims to add variety to piano lessons by providing attractive pieces in a pop idiom. The part for the first player (Primo) is kept simpler than the accompaniment, so that various combinations of players are possible: student (melody) and teacher (accompaniment) or two students of different playing standards. In this way the young keyboard 'champions' become acquainted with ensemble playing, keeping the tempo, listening to each other, the conventions of modern rhythms and syncopation, as well as being at ease with pop harmonies.
