The Holly and the Ivy
Greensleeves
Sing We Noel Christmas (which is not green, but it weaseled its way into the arrangement, nonetheless)
Playtime is 3:40
The music is fairly straightforward and easy follow.

History: This piece was arranged to serve as a yuletide prelude during Advent. It has since proven a delightful addition to the Christmas playlist.

This collection is a must-have for ensembles wishing to enhance their holiday repertoire.

Mendelssohn composed these six short piano pieces as Christmas presents for various young members of his family whilst visiting London in 1842. They translate very well to a small ensemble arrangement and can be performed successfully by a competent group without much of a problem.
