This beautiful Shaker hymn is arranged here for beginner piano. Both hands are in F Major position throughout, with occasional finger extensions just one key below or above. This melody has always felt like quintessential American music to me, and its message is perfect for Thanksgiving! Lyrics are included on a separate page.
Looking for some fun Thanksgiving piano music for Turkey Day? This Studio-Licensed Bundle contains 2 original holiday compositions for beginners!
Thanksgiving Turkey Trot: A playful swinging composition about the Turkey Trot — not the people race on Thanksgiving morning, but the turkey race to escape the farmer! The slowest runnin’ turkey will be served for Thanksgiving dinner, so when the farmer comes a-callin’, the turkeys start a-haulin’! This bouncy, fun, and educational piece is perfect for mid to late beginner turkey lovers this Thanksgiving season. Purchase separately here.
Pilgrim Girl and Boy: A call-and-response type piece about Pilgrim children and what their lives might have been like, with girls baking bread, boys apprenticing in a trade, and both working hard, attending church, playing together, and of course, enjoying Thanksgiving dinner! The music has a memorable rhythm and is perfect for helping beginners stretch and get out of 5-finger hand positions without being overly challenging. Purchase separately here.
This product comes with a Studio License that allows you as a Teacher to share this copy with any number of your own students. (May not be shared with other teachers or non-students.)
