Finding the right Christmas piano book isn’t always easy. Some collections are so simple they sound bare and uninteresting, while others are too advanced for busy pianists who just want music they can pick up and play.
That’s why we created the Sing & Play Easy Piano Christmas Series. These two volumes are written for early intermediate pianists who want music that’s both accessible and satisfying to play. Each book includes 22 classic Christmas carols and holiday favorites. Songs are arranged with rich chordal accompaniments that sound full without requiring hours of practice.
Whether you’re playing for a Christmas Eve service, accompanying a school program, or leading a family sing-along at home, these books are designed to give you music that works in real settings—beautiful arrangements that you’ll be proud to play.
Why These Books Are Different
Most Christmas piano books are written for complete beginners or for advanced pianists. That leaves a big gap in the middle – pianists who want arrangements that sound full and beautiful but are still easy to play.
The Sing & Play Easy Piano Christmas Series fills that gap. These books are designed for early intermediate players who want music that sounds good and arrangements that work well in real-life performances. The want music that doesn’t require tons of practice to sound polished.
Here’s what makes them stand out:
- Chordal accompaniments: Song sound rich and full without being overly complex.
- Options: Songs are notated in two keys. This makes it easy to match singers’ voices, or pair with guitar or ukulele. Or, simply choose the key that’s most comfortable to play.

- Plagal cadences (Amen cadences) charts: Charts are included for flexible performance options in church or classroom settings.
- Popular Christmas songs: A thoughtful balance of sacred carols and familiar holiday favorites, so you’ll be ready for every setting—church, school, or home.
Instead of being too simple to be satisfying, or too complex to be practical, these books offer a sweet spot: arrangements that are both accessible and performance-ready.

Why are Songs Written in 2 Keys?
One feature that makes these Christmas piano books unique is that every song is written in two different keys. That’s not just for variety, it’s practical, too.
- Ease of Play – Some keys are simply more comfortable under the fingers. Depending on your level of performance, choose the version that feels best.
- Vocal Range – Having two key options makes it easier to match the vocal range of your singers.
- Other Instruments – If you’re playing with guitar, ukulele, or another instrument, choose the key that works best for your instrumentalists.
- Keep Songs Fresh – Play the first couple of verses in one key, then modulate up to the second key for the final verse. This creates a more interesting arrangement and feels like a performance upgrade without extra work.
With two key options for every song, you’ll always have a version that works, whether you’re teaching, accompanying, or leading a sing-along.
