The First Noel - Piano & Voice Sheet Music with Harmonies, Two Keys (PDF)

Play The First Noel the way you heard it on Sunday Hymn Serenade. This is my own arrangement for piano and voice, with two vocal harmony lines written out, and it comes in two keys.

You get both keys in one download. The key of C is easier to read and play. The key of B is the original, the one on the recording. Pick whichever suits your singer or your comfort at the keyboard.

Because both harmony lines are written out, this works as a trio or a small choir piece as well as a solo. There is an instrumental chorus in the middle where the piano takes the melody, which gives your singers a breather partway through.

What's included

• The whole arrangement in the key of C, easier to read and play
• The whole arrangement in the key of B, the original recording key
• Piano and voice on one score, with lyrics
• Two vocal harmony lines written out, for a trio or choir

• 7 pages in each key, instant PDF download, yours to keep and print
