Carol of the Bells Sheet Music Beginner Easy Piano

Not a Christmas goes by without a piano student asking to learn Carol of the Bells!

This Carol of the Bells beginner piano version works well even for early beginners. With its repetitive four-note motif and LH accompaniment that stays mostly in a 5-finger position, it's a quick and easy learn. My beginner students love reviewing this one every year.

This beginner piano Ukrainian Bell Carol arrangement highlights the melody and is a great choice for newer beginners with small hands. Minimal pedal adds a rewarding fullness of sound at key transition points. Look and listen below:
