Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree - Piano and saxophone - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 24
Something a bit special for the last day of the advent calendar: none other than the return of brother-in-law Mick! (A man with many strings to his bow, one of which happens to be his amazing saxophone skills 🎶🎷). Fun fact about this song - Brenda Lee was only THIRTEEN years old when she recorded it, despite sounding like a fully grown adult. The official video for the song was only just made a little over a year ago, to mark the 65th anniversary of its release (and can be seen here: ruclips.net/video/TFsZy9t-qDc/видео.html)

O Little Town of Bethlehem - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 23
Просмотров 45Месяц назад
This carol is popular on both sides of the pond, with the same words set to different tunes. Which to choose? After much soul searching and agonising, extensive market research and focus group discussions, I decided to do both in one. Everybody's happy. The visuals are from this new video from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints "A Savior, Jesus Christ, Is Born" (see link here: rucl...

Cornwall has blessed us with many things - delicious pasties, beautiful coastlines on which to enjoy eating them, Poldark, the steam engine...AND, as it turns out, this lovely Christmas carol. It was reportedly first collected by Reverend George Broad in the 19th century when it was heard sung in the village of St. Day, from where its name derives. The introductory motif used in the right hand ...
Happy Xmas (War Is Over) - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 21
Просмотров 101Месяц назад
John Lennon and Yoko Ono wrote this song in 1971 as part of their efforts to promote peace during the Vietnam war, and it has since become a Christmas classic in the UK (probably less so in the US though I don't know). I always thought it was slightly odd that at the beginning of the original song you can hear a whispering Yoko Ono wish herself "Happy Christmas, Yoko", and then a whispering Joh...
Under the Tree (from That Christmas), by Ed Sheeran - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 20
Просмотров 171Месяц назад
If you haven't yet caught Richard Curtis' new animated Christmas movie "That Christmas" I can recommend. We watched it this week and loved it. It's a bit sad in places, but ultimately heart warming and life affirming. "Under the Tree" is Ed Sheeran's latest Christmas single, written specifically for the film. I think it's rather lovely.
Of the Father's Heart Begotten - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 19

I came across this less well known Christmas carol as a teenager when we had at home one of those "100 best Christmas carols" CD collections (back in the distant past when that was how we consumed music...). I really liked it then, and it has grown on me further over the years. Obviously it's much better sung, but not by me. Here is a piano rendition, with a brief smattering of organ at the end...
Jesus, Jesus, Rest Your Head (arr. Mack Wilberg) - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 18
Просмотров 56Месяц назад
This carol has its origins in the Appalachian region of America. It was collected by John Jacob Niles, American folk musicologist and singer, and published in 1934, though it dates back much further, from oral folk tradition. As ever, Mack Wilberg has sprinkled it with some magic Mack Wilberg music dust, and made some lovely harmonies - actually better appreciated with the Tabernacle Choir at T...
A Place Called Home - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 17

I have to say that "A Christmas Carol The Musical", starring Kelsey Grammer and released in 2004, is not my favourite version of A Christmas Carol - (As we recently established, that top spot belongs unequivocally to the Muppets) - and nor is it even my second or third favourite version. HOWEVER, it does have a couple of redeeming features: One of them is that it features a young Jacob Collier ...
Thankful Heart (The Muppet Christmas Carol) - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 16

Once again The Muppet Christmas Carol must feature in the musical advent calendar, because it is INDISPUTABLY the best version of A Christmas Carol ever to have graced our screens. This is the moment on Christmas morning when Scrooge dances about the town letting everyone know (muppet and human alike) he is a changed man - "...Yes and every night will end, and every day will start with a gratef...
O Come All Ye Faithful - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 15
Просмотров 65Месяц назад
This is another one of my favourite Christmas carols. The authorship of it (so they say) is not entirely certain. The original Latin text, "Adeste Fideles", is often attributed to English hymnographer John Francis Wade, who published it in 1751, though some believe he may only have copied and popularised it rather than being its original author. It was Anglican priest Frederick Oakley who trans...
Please Come Home For Christmas - Piano and organ - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 14
Просмотров 56Месяц назад
This song was first released in 1960 by American blues singer and pianist Charles Brown (not Charlie Brown - he's a comic strip character who owns a dog called Snoopy). Its probably better known iteration was released by The Eagles in 1978, and by various other artists at different times.
Miracle on 34th Street Theme - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 13

The 1994 version of Miracle on 34th Street, with Richard Attenborough playing Santa Claus, is essential Christmas viewing in the Dockrill home. We love it! The soundtrack was written by American composer Bruce Broughton, and evokes for me much Christmassy-ness 😊🎄!
Feliz Navidad - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 12
Просмотров 115Месяц назад
Merry December 12th! Feliz Navidad was released in 1970 by Puerto Rican singer-songwriter José Feliciano. He wrote it at Christmastime while sitting in Los Angeles and missing his family in New York. It was recorded in ten minutes, and has gone on peak at Number 6 in the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. "Feliz Navidad, próspero año y felicidad" ("Merry Christmas, a prosperous year and happiness")
As Long As There's Christmas - Piano - Musical Advent Calendar: Day 11

This song appears in "Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas" and was written by British composer Rachel Portman, who also happens to be the first female composer to win an Academy award for Best Original Score, for Emma (1996). The lyrics for this song were written by Don Black, though you obviously won't here those here...You'll have to check out the movie version for those.

    Hey Seth - Yuletide greetings! Just caught up on the first 4 instalments of this year's offering and you just get better and better. Love the counterpoint on today's DDMOH and the way you pick out melodies from busy right hand inversions on everything makes me green with envy. But green's a good, Christmassy colour, right?
