Here is a list of the songs in this medley. I hope that you enjoy it. Sleigh Ride - Leroy Anderson (1948) Frosty the Snowman - Walter Rollins and Steve Nelson (1950) Here Comes Santa Claus - Gene Autrey (1947) It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year - Edward Pola and George Wyle (1963) We Need a Little Christmas (from the musical Mame) - Jerry Herman (1966) Santa Claus is Coming to Town - J. Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie (1934) Christmas Time is Here - Vince Guaraldi (1965) Sleigh Ride - Conclusion This medley was arranged by a man named Alan Dale who made a video of it 17 years ago which can be found on RUclips. As far as I know, nobody else has ever made a recording of it. I really like many of the songs that Alan Dale arranged. He used to play on a riverboat.
Wow Leander that's a whole lot of songs wrapped up into one big one 😄 ❤ love you little guy your incredible pianist ! Keep your feets warm and your fingers too ❤️
Not only can he play better than most kids his age (better than some adults, even!), he has a gorgeous smile, but he’s also a fountain of musical information!! Leander, The Great!!!
It is bitter cold here in Wisconsin today, Leander, and I am stuck indoors on a day with all clouds and almost no sun. You've made me feel much better with this jaunty medley! Thank you!
I Am 'MESMERIZED' Every time I hear you play !😂😂😂, Never have I seen such Magnificent Music Artistry playing (ALL BY EAR)😂, You are beyond Great !😂😂😂❤❤❤
Your playing brings me so much joy!! You surprise all of us with every new video, thank you for sharing your happiness and talent!! Enjoy this years christmas season!
Dear Leander, you sort of blow my mind away with your mix of incredible Christmas songs. How you play them is so amazing to watch. Thank you dear mate!!!!!
Fantastic Leander. I'm visiting my 90 year old mom in Florida. Whenever I visit we often watch The Lawrence Welk Show which I think you would like because they had great piano players. 🎹🎄👍
When I was small, my parents had me play 'Onward Christian Soldiers' for the church congregation. That went quite well. But, the following week, they asked me to play 'All Things Bright And Beautiful'. I made a mistake, while everybody was singing, and was so embarrassed that I never played publicly again!
Folks- Let’s all pitch in and get this young man a baby grand piano…and outfit it with a recorder that allows him to digitally capture his performances. Well-done, Sir! You’ve got a fan in me.
@ You are SO correct! I was blinded by the music, and wasn’t thinking of practicality. The Story & Clark QRS would be a TERRIFIC “next step” for him. Okay, fans: Who can pull together a crowdfunding appeal that would let us gift a new instrument in 2025 for this young man? ❤️ to all who would consider joining us ❤️🎹
Hey Leander...😊.... Thank you for all the Christmas music magic that you're giving us. That was a very joyful piece I'm glad you decided to play it. As always God bless
Merry Christmas! Leander! I love this medley. You are so incredibly talented. I just love watching you play whatever you play. Thanks very much for being on RUclips with You're fantastic talent!🌲☃️❄️
Oh boy, what fun... a toe tapping Christmas medley! Was für wunderbare Lieder! Vince Guaraldi songs are some of my favorite because of Charlie Brown's Christmas. You are the happiest Artist on RUclips, for sure!! Keep it up, Leander! 😄🤗🌲🎄 Jerry
This sounds amazing, I’ve been feeling blue and you really gave me the Christmas spirit! Please play more Christmas music, you’re a blessing! Thank you and Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁
Wow! You know how to play fast! I liked your transition from Santa Claus is Comin' to Town to Christmas Time is Here! It sure is with your colored lights and Santa Hat! 🎅 Leander, I wondered if your hands, fingers, wrists, and arms ever hurt? You have very upright posture at the piano. Your hands are still quite young. I just wondered if you do any warm up exercises with your arms, shoulders and so forth. There's another pianist online who likes Ragtime as much as you! I'll bet you already know of Adam Swanson. If not, I'm sure you both will admire each other's dedication to playing good piano music! Are the photos on your piano your grandparents? I keep a photo of my grandmother on her Singer Sewing machine that I think was made in the same years as some of your Ragtime favorites. Well, Merry and Happy Holidays for now! I'm looking forward to your next video. Bless you and your loved ones always! ❤✨💚✨🎄✨🎹🎶✨🙏🕊️
Leander, YOU are amazing! I love to watch and hear you play!! Your playing is superb! Your fingers just fly over the keys! You bring a lot of joy to many people. Keep playing for others and spreading the love of Jesus with your talent. I enjoyed this so tremendously.🎁🎄❤️🎁🎄❤️
Sounds great! You’re doing a wonderful job of these pieces. I’ve finally managed to get the introduction to Billy Mayerls Christmas Medley down so I’ll probably manage to record that at some point
Leander , you play the piano so wonderful. Keep it up and one day you will be a professional and making big bucks. Merry Christmas 2024 to you and your family. (CA)

Fantastic Leander. I'm visiting my 90 year old mom in Florida. Whenever I visit we often watch The Lawrence Welk Show which I think you would like because they had great piano players. 🎹🎄👍
Delightful!!!!!
We need a little Christmas right this very minute, and you brought it. Thanks to you and Alan Dale.
You amaze me every day, Leander. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world. Love you.
Wow Very nice.
Great job young man!
You’re right up there with Alan Dale. RIP😢
I think you're ready for a riverboat gig yourself! 😄🎅🏻🦌🎄❄☃
Love listening to you loving what you do plus making all your viewers smile.
Okay,,, we love it!!! Your technique is progressing, and your enthusiasm is contagious!

Thanks to Leander... Christmas had now arrived.
Folks- Let’s all pitch in and get this young man a baby grand piano…and outfit it with a recorder that allows him to digitally capture his performances.
Well-done, Sir! You’ve got a fan in me.
A grand piano may be to big for room. Story $ Clark QRS makes a good piano with pianomation. ( I'm in!!! )
@ You are SO correct! I was blinded by the music, and wasn’t thinking of practicality. The Story & Clark QRS would be a TERRIFIC “next step” for him. Okay, fans: Who can pull together a crowdfunding appeal that would let us gift a new instrument in 2025 for this young man? ❤️ to all who would consider joining us ❤️🎹
@@brianprice9436 How do you know their room size?
I too am hoping that santa has got a sleigh where a decent piano fits in 😉
Hey Leander...😊.... Thank you for all the Christmas music magic that you're giving us. That was a very joyful piece I'm glad you decided to play it. As always God bless
Sleigh Ride is one of my favorites, we played it in high school band. The entire ensemble looked like it was fun to play. Thank you, Leander!
Leander, you blew the roof off the house playing that medley. Loved it!😊❤
Omg he would be handsome pianist ❤❤❤❤
Hi from Finland ! As ABBA sings, ” Thank you for the music” ! You are a genius ! ❤😊

Merry Christmas! Leander! I love this medley. You are so incredibly talented. I just love watching you play whatever you play. Thanks very much for being on RUclips with You're fantastic talent!🌲☃️❄️

Do you just hear songs then go play them on the piano? What an amazing gift.
Such a fun medley 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I left a comment on his video....if he is still active on his channel, maybe he'll come watch your rendition.
It is very sad but he passed away about 10 years ago
@Leander-piano Sad to hear that. You are playing well. Keep it up!
@Leander-piano OH, how sad - I used to follow him years ago - he was brilliant. Great to see you following in his footsteps - he'd be very proud 🙂
Brilliant!!!!!!!
Such joy. You are a blessing to us all!❤❤❤
Fabulous
Wonderful. Would love to see and hear you play The Mighty Wurlitzer in Blackpool one day. What a treat. Thank you. 🤶
What a fun medley, Leander!
This sounds amazing, I’ve been feeling blue and you really gave me the Christmas spirit! Please play more Christmas music, you’re a blessing! Thank you and Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁
