Dobro Christmas (Download)

Price $19.95

The Holiday Season is a wonderful time for family and friends to be together. It is also a great opportunity to play music! That was the thought behind this series; playing Christmas Carols as a family or with friends.

The arrangements presented in this book are for 1, 2 or 3 Dobros. They are cleverly arranged to match the complimentary books in this series: Mandolin Christmas, Bass Christmas, Banjo Christmas, Fiddle Christmas and Guitar Christmas. You can mix and match any of the arrangements in many different combinations to create some very unique and entertaining Holiday Music and Caroling. As an example, let’s say that you have a Guitar and Mandolin picker to jam with. You can split up the parts between the three of you. The Dobro could play part 1, the Guitar part 2 and Mandolin part 3. For variety, you can switch these as you perform. The second time through the song, as an example, the Dobro could switch to part 2, the Guitar to part 3 and the Mandolin could go to part 1. On the next repeat, switch the parts again! There are many possibilities. Add a Bass and you will have an authentic, Christmas Carol Quartet!

The arrangements use Dobro Tablature with standard Bluegrass G Tuning (G, B, D, G, B, D low to high)

Several play-along audio recordings have been prepared to give you and idea of how the arrangements sound with the instruments together and other recording mixes minus the individual instruments affording you the opportunity to fill in the missing parts.
