Product Description
The Christmas carol, Once in Royal Davids City, is a traditional favorite for Lessons in Carols. With a pedagogical emphasis, this duet fosters a number of developing skills for students including reading and playing treble and bass leger line notes. Students are provided the opportunity to play, pray, and enjoy well crafted sacred music for recitals, prayer services and church/school liturgies.
