I know it’s hard to believe, but I’m starting planning for “The Yuletide Ukulele”. The music takes many months to research and arrange so I have to start now to be ready for next Christmas. Of course the music needs to be ancient (nothing later than18th century if possible) and there is too much of it out there to do it all. The main book will be the music, including chords, with a separate booklet with the words if there are any. Here’s a list of possible pieces and I’m looking for feedback on these please …
Coventry Carol
The boar’s head carol
In dulci jubilo
Resonent in laudibus
Riu, riu chiu
Hodie Christus nastus est
Psallite unigenite
Greensleeves (What Child Is This)
Branle de l’Offical
Joseph lieber

Cherry Tree carol
Viens Vite

All you that are good fellows
The old yeare now away is fled
Angels We Have Heard on High
Silent Night (actually 1818 so it’s 19th century)
