German Christmas Carols: Piano standard level

German Christmas Carols with Lyrics in English and in German. In this edition we have assembled 36 traditional German Christmas carols, partly from Christian hymnbooks, partly from traditional folklore. A number of carols have been rendered into English for the first time, some existing English versions have been revised, and some have been taken over as they were. The German stanzas are provided next to the English version. There are also two alphabetical lists of the carols with both the English/German and the German/English first lines.
