Description
Jingle Bells for Three is an easy piano trio for six hands at one piano that is fun for students of all ages. Busy older students can sight read this versatile piece at a group lesson, and the younger students can practice it for several weeks before their group plays, and experience the joy of their first piano trio. One family used it at their annual Christmas get-together. Even players who haven’t touched the piano in years will be able to play it. There are no 8th notes! The parts are in 5 finger patterns and there is very little moving around. I’ve used this with groups ranging from first grade to adult. One student told me it was easy, but fun. You can choose which version you prefer to use. The measures are numbered, and the score includes expression marks and suggested fingerings. Print as many copies as you need!

A trio of 3 students played this at the holiday recital. We all loved putting it together & it was one of the highlights of the concert. Highly recommended!!

I used this piece for my students’ Christmas program. 2 siblings and their mother each played a piece. I love duets and trios and this piece was a hit during the performance!

I used the Jingle Bells Trio with three 5th grade boys. They played it in our Clavinova Festival and our school piano recital. It was a big hit. I was able to record all 3 parts so that each boy could practice with the recording. That made it easy and it worked out great! I plan on using it with another group of students next year. Thanks!

I remember once watching a video of a performance of a piece for one piano, six hands, and thought something like this would be great for some of the families that I teach. I was pleased to learn of this arrangement. The second grader was very excited about it and was able to get her 6th grade brother and mom to join in. The 6th grader just started playing tuba and once he realized that the bass line was like a tuba part, he also became enthusiastic. Mom felt a little self-conscious about playing the middle part, but all three of them worked together and they sound great! I look forward to having one of my other families learn Jingle Bells for Three next Christmas!

Your comment really means a lot to me because that’s exactly how I would like it to be used. I would love for more families to be able to share music together!
