for Violin, Cello and Piano
Arranged by Anna Lu
I arranged this famous Christmas carol in 2021 for my piano student and her two elder sisters who play the flute and the cello. As it was our first face-to-face concert, this was
intended to be a fun item, so I have added some ‘acting’ element at the beginning of the
piece!
The piano player who is a beginner plays the “Chopsticks” melody terribly on the piano and the other two players are disgusted and cover their ears and yells “STOP!”.
The cellist then enters proudly with a waltz-like accompanying pattern. The chorus melody is always played by the piano and the two instruments take turns playing the verse melody.
Essentially this can be played with any combination of instruments, provided there is one
treble instrument and one bass instrument.
I hope you enjoy this arrangement!
