Perhaps one of the most popular
Christmas festive tunes, "The
Twelve Days of Christmas" is
taught to children all over the
world with the "5 golden rings"
part especially enjoyed!
A relatively simple and repetitive
tune which makes it great
practice for beginners. The
challenge will be getting up to
speed and playing with a nice
flow. Good luck :)
