2007
Arranged by Eltjo Haselhoff
This is a nice example of a song that is technically very easy, still, it was one of the hardest songs I ever learned to play. ..!
Enjoy, and a Merry Christmas to all of you!

2006: Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis!
Arranged by Eltjo Haselhoff
Another beautiful song that deserved a guitar arrangement. Or actually: three arrangements! My performance in the video has a humoristic edge to it, but the tabs should help you on your way with each of the three styles: straightforward (in standard tuning), Celtic (in Orkney tuning), and 'Chet Style'. Or invite two friends and work on it together!
Feel free to copy and distribute.
Merry Christmas to all of you!

2004: God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
Arranged by Eltjo Haselhoff
My version of this beautiful song is probably quite "different'. It sounds advanced, and it probably is. Still, I don't think it requires extraordinary skills, as both the left- and right hand playing patterns are quite trivial. The only tricky bit I guess is keeping the almost 160 beats per minute throughout the song. Give it a try!

2003: Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Arranged by Eltjo Haselhoff
The guitar is not doing a lot here, because the 5-string banjo is doing it all! This is a multi-track recording on which I play all instruments. No tabs, sorry, but I hope the video is inspiring.
Merry Christmas to all of you!

2002: Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Arranged by Eltjo Haselhoff
Here is another Christmas arrangement I composed in DADGAD tuning. This piece is a little more advanced than last year's Silent Night, and more directed towards the intermediate (or better) fingerpicker. In particular the left hand work contains some non-trivial moves.
Merry Christmas to all of you!

2001: Silent Night
Arranged by Eltjo Haselhoff
This version of "Silent Night" is really not hard to play, but it sounds pretty good and is quite different from the common arrangements.
Merry Christmas to all of you!
