A wonderful, generous selection of Christmas music, beautifully arranged for small harp. Most of the pieces are soft and gentle, like cradle songs, but there are a couple of up-tempo numbers for variety, with a good balance between familiar and less well-known tunes. For an experienced harpist, everything is pretty easily sight-readable, and an intermediate-level student should be able to work out most of the pieces.
