Christmas Favorites for Mandolin

I picked a few songs this past Christmas to practice. I use sheet music but I did see tabs. It was easy to get down my selection. I liked the selection of music.

The tabs are great! Wonderful for some one who can only read tabs and play tunes they know... that's me. I do wish the music was arranged a bit clearer. Super fun to pick up and play for Christmas time.

Made my wife so happy! She was knocking these tunes out in minutes

I love this collection of songs! Perfect for a mid-level player! I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a relatively easy-to-pick-up collection of Christmas songs.

I like the songs,They are popular and simple to play, with practice you will get the hang of mainly every music piece. Get it.

great

I purchased this intending to use my Kindle for PC app to read it while I play the mandolin. Every time I try to open it, it crashes my computer. Other Kindle books are fine and do not crash it. I conclude that the book is probably improperly formatted or is is some way not able to be read by the app. Buyer beware!

This is a pretty awful anthology of Christmas songs arranged for mandolin, and I'm sorry I bought it.The layout of the songs has been done well. These are mandolin solos, by which I mean not merely a one-note treble line, but a treble line that includes chords mixed up with single notes, all in standard notation.Below the treble line is the TAB notation, and above the treble line are chord notations (but not diagrams). I hate those anthologies that are nothing but a bare, unimproved treble line and chord notations: this is not one of those.The only problem as far as I'm concerned is the selection of songs. It's almost as if this is an anthology of lousy, reject Christmas songs that nobody really likes. There's really nothing in here that I want to play.My imagination? Judge for yourself: here are the entire contents:Blue ChristmasChristmas in DixieThe Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)Christmas Time is HereDo you Hear What I Hear?Frosty the Snow ManHere Comes Santa ClausA Holly Jolly ChristmasI Saw Mommy Kissing Santa ClausI'll Be Home for ChristmasJingle-Bell RockLet it Snow!

excellent book, just what I wanted. Recommend same.

Great christmas gift for mandolin players. Good variety of songs and clear music to follow, not too complicated. Gratefully received.
