The Richmond County Orchestra  ended its concert with your piece, and I have to tell you, not only did the audience sing along robustly, but they were on their feet applauding at the final tutti orchestra chord, just before the orchestra sang "We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year".

Holiday Airs Bair $14.95 SB01

"The arrangement of I Saw Three Ships and The Holly and the Ivy in Sheldon's Holiday Airs is a good combination for beginning String students.  It is an easy selection, with a good full sound in 3/4 time.  I used this piece for my entire sixth through eighth grade groups to perform together and they enjoyed these melodies and the opportunity for solos at the end.  It is a beautiful blend of two wonderful Christmas melodies and gets you in the spirit for the season."
