I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day- Mandolin
advanced mandolin
This lesson is for members
Not the most common Christmas melody, but definitely one of the prettiest! On Christmas in 1863 by a heartbroken poet, Henry Longfellow, penned the words after losing his wife & his son near fatally injured in the Civil War. It wasn't until 1872 that the words were set to music. I call it an advanced lesson because of the challenging chord shapes & fingerings.
