Hal Leonard Big Book of Christmas Songs Songbook

The Hal Leonard Big Book of Christmas Songs has earned its place as a staple holiday music reference since its original publication in 1991. Now in its second edition, this 272-page collection brings together 120 Christmas songs spanning centuries of holiday tradition. From sacred hymns like "Angels We Have Heard on High" and "It Came upon the Midnight Clear" to festive favorites like "Jingle Bells" and "The Twelve Days of Christmas," the breadth of material makes it a one-stop resource for caroling sessions, church services, school concerts, and family gatherings around the piano.

Each song is arranged in a standard piano/vocal/guitar format, featuring full piano notation, vocal melody lines with lyrics, and guitar chord symbols above the staff. This triple-instrument layout ensures that pianists, singers, and guitarists can all play from the same book, making it especially convenient for group settings. Published by Hal Leonard, the industry standard in printed music, the book benefits from clean, readable engraving and thoughtful page layout. While the arrangements prioritize accessibility over complexity, intermediate and advancing players will find them musically satisfying, and the sheer volume of material ensures there is always another carol to learn.
