This is another in a series of Christmas/Holiday duets that I've scored for my wife and I on Soprano and Alto Recorders, respectively.

They are not too complex, but the some of the keys may be challenging to some players who haven't been playing for very long. The Holidays are coming. I hope you, your family, and friends will get some pleasure out of playing these duets.

I've actually come across three different variations of Away In A Manger. We chose to combine our two favorites into one piece, a device that we have heard other performers use.

The eight pieces that I've submitted today are likely the last of the Holiday songs for this year, as things are becoming very busy, here approaching the Holidays. Enjoy! And Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Hi Ralph,

I for one definitely appreciate your sharing all these pieces. I've downloaded every one of them for using with our up and coming musicians here
I understand about the busy - we've got only two more weeks of rehearsal for our Christmas program, and it's coming together nicely.

A Merry Christmas to you and yours too, and everyone else as well
Sherry
