Christmas Song Thread?

[pawlowski6132]

I thought I would see a Mr. Beaumont thread here for the holidays.

Hmm.

[mr. beaumont]

Ugh, trying to remember a few that I have arranged...don't want to devote a whole thread to that, though

I'm still going through my "Autumn of Solo Guitar" but I've unfortunately been really busy. I've had time to play, but little to sit and record...and now it's basketball season, so my busy just got busier!

My trio played Christmastime Is Here on Friday. But it didn’t get recorded.

I have 4 gigs in December so I’ll get it on one of them.

Wow, you play basketball too??

I did an over 30 league for a few years, but now I just coach. 7th grade this year, great group of kids. First game Saturday!

Maybe a little late to this thread...here's one I just did.

Hope to see some others.

Happy Holidays to all.


PS - EDIT: Thanks to ragman1 for explaining how to embed the SoundCloud player.

Hey, that's pretty good. Great job.

Is that your own arrangement?

[AllanAllen]

Like Pawlowki said, really good playing and arrangement of First Noel. What else do you got?

[swampguide]

Thanks for the comments! I did my own arrangement. It took me a couple of weeks to work out and record. The second chorus was harder as there is more movement/notes (maybe too busy?). For the past few years I've been trying to do one every year for Christmas. Below is a link to the one I did last year.

Cheers!

Here’s an original demo I made. Dropbox

[alltunes]

Here is one I recorded Christmas past. I usually try and dust off a tune every season but ran out of time his year. I have been listening though….Sirius XM has a good Holiday jazz channel.

Go to your SoundCloud profile. Press this button under your track. It copies the link to your clipboard. Then paste it in your post here. The player won't show till you submit the post.

I'm not very good at Xmas songs but I ought to try something. The challenge with this one is not to drop off in the middle :-)

Best not show that one in class nowadays!

[ragman1]

I've always liked this tune, very pretty.

With my 11 year old grandniece, we did this yesterday.

Your grandniece can sing!!!

[swampguide]

Fep,

Nicely done. Your grandniece is really good. She'll really be something in 10 years if she continues in music!

[AllanAllen]

I can’t hear this as 3/4. What’s up with that?

[ScottM]

Merry Christmas!

Nothing. It's in 4/4 :-)

Here I am pounding away at this square peg….
