Festive Collection for Guitar Ensemble contains arrangements and original compositions for guitarists of various skill levels, from the complete beginner to grade 3 and beyond. The books contain a varied repertoire that students will enjoy playing as a group. Each arrangement has a part for beginning, intermediate, and advanced students. Generally, the more advanced students take the melody, while less experienced students play the accompaniment. When provided, the chords can be strummed by a teacher or student familiar with playing folk styles. For beginners, the chords can also be simplified to just the bass notes.
