This is made for complete beginners who want to finally learn how to play piano!
So if you've always wanted to learn, but you've never known where to get started, this is the course for you.

[Sparky]

Gives it a nice, creepy feel...
Which is perfect for "He sees you when you're sleeping..."

[jadely]

Ah, the Nightmare before Christmas editions.

[corybanter]

I think the "thumpity-thump-thump" section of "Frosty" may have actually sounded better in the minor key! Great arrangements.

[pieroarcuri]

a whole new meaning to “he sees you when you’re sleeping… he knows when you’re awake…”

[Eric]

Feliz Navidad sounds even more Spanish in a minor key. I love it!

[NB]

Frosty sounds like something that should be played in a creepy fun house.

[eldaroses.g.r.]

Some of them turned minor key sound like music for old cartoons that look cute on the surface, but the closer attention you pay the more disturbing it actually is. Which is cool!

[FrieBonx]

When every store sells Christmas themed items but it's still October:

[johnbirkel]

Nothing horrifying at all. This is absolutely wonderful

[ConceptJunkie]

Some of these sound amazing. Others don't work quite as well, but nevertheless your arrangements are very cool. And your playing is excellent. Keep up the great work.

[CrazyMusicBoy]

I mean for Santa Claus is coming to town, the "he sees you when you are sleeping" part makes sense now

[gradypatterson]

Fun stuff, Corey! Several songs (notably "Frosty" and "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town") get a really "Russian" sound - almost need a troupe dancing the Barynya! Feliz Navidad, on the other hand, actually sounds better than the original, IMO - it loses the cheesy aspect of the standard major-key version, while still sounding happy - as if it were more sincere!

For next year, perhaps, try taking Christmas songs that are in minor keys ("We Three Kings" and "Oh, Come! Oh, Come, Emmanual" pop to mind) and play them in Augmented! :-)

[scottoliver]

Interesting rendition of the songs. I think A Holly Jolly Christmas is my favorite as it reminds me of music you might hear at a circus.

[kvan-fo]

I don't know why, but I love it and me and my friend are gonna do some of these for our Christmas band concert!!!!

[MayaVanderploeg]

These are actually really cool, like they could be played for a villain at Christmas time in a movie or something

[Lyricaalrain]

For Santa Claus is coming to town, I'm imagining it's Krampus is coming to town, lol.

only 131 likes?? deserves more honestly! 🤨

Frosty The snowman WAS a Jolly Happy Soul...😔

[markhealey]

Very cool. I closed my eyes trying to figure out the songs by the ‘new’ melody line. Enjoyed it. Shared it on my Facebook.
