Kathy and David Blackwell's Cello Time Christmas, a selection of 31 pieces, contains a wonderfully diverse range of seasonal tunes and carols, all arranged in comfortable keys that allow the cellist to stay in first position throughout. There is a healthy mix of solos and duets - all of which provide easy chord symbols for guitar or keyboard accompaniment - while the words to each song have been clearly and helpfully printed beneath each note. Catherine Monk, Music Teacher Feb 05 It is one of the best volumes of Christmas music that I have seen and is produced to the normal high standards of the Cello Time series. MMA Ensemble Jan 05 This beautifully presented edition describes itself as 'a stockingful of 31 easy pieces' ... This is a very well presented book and is a welcome edition to the Christmas selection. ESTA News and Views Winter 2004 As Christmas approaches, what better way for young cellists to celebrate than play a selection of carols from Kathy and David Blackwell's timely book ... Alan Rowe's zestful drawings and colourful cover are sure to entice young players to explore this well-graded selection. Beginners on cello will no doubt recognize many of the tunes so they are more than halfway to learning them. For end of year school parties and concerts, family get-togethers, busking and just plain fun, this book is the perfect pre-Christmas stocking filler. Australian Music Teacher Nov 04
