This is one of the numerous Christmas collections (11 for solo, 4 for duet) composed by Rocherolle, each based on various concepts. This particular volume is characterized by a satisfying playability set at an intermediate difficulty level, a rich sonority achieved through a well-balanced tonal range, and a distinctive creativity that tastefully integrates the lyrical essence of the original carols while maintaining respect for their integrity. The collection as a whole possesses a subdued and tranquil atmosphere. The arrangements are skillfully executed, allowing for a presentable performance even if one cannot master every minute detail. Given its lack of a childish quality, it is highly recommended for junior high and high school students, as well as adult learners.
