Clear print of modern arrangements - some of traditional carols. All from top composers. A great 5th book in the series. A ring bound version would be even better!

Chamberlain Music offered this item at a very competitive price, with good discounts for bulk purchases - unlike many of their on-line competitors. Delivery was very quick, and the 'track your order' system told me to the hour when to expect the parcel. As for the usefulness of the book - wait till after Christmas!
