The First Noel, Traditional English Christmas Carol<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is a good Christmas Carol for beginner guitar players. This tune is in a major key and the melody, for the most part, has contiguous scale notes, whether ascending or descending. So if you know the C Major scale, for example, you can learn this melody fairly easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another interesting aspect of this melody is that it does not start or end on the key note. Many songs in the key of C begin and end on a C note. For First Noel, the beginning and ending note is E, which is the 3rd note of this major scale, and is also part of the C Major chord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Merry Christmas<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
