This is the first book ever of Yuletide music arranged for solo guitar in various "open" or "altered" tunings.  In this genre of guitar music, the instrument is re-tuned to create a voicing ideally suited for each particular song.  This book contains ten Christmas tunes and covers five open tunings that give voice and life to the music of the Yuletide season.  The arrangements include old standards, like Silent Night and Joy to the World, and a sprinkling of more obscure tunes, such as Am Weinachts Baum die Lichte Brennen.  All are beautiful, time-tested songs. Includes access to online audio.
