Review:
"Bring a Torch, Jeanette Isabella" and "Good King Wenceslas" are separately arranged in volume three of the "Alpha" series. This collection/suite is ideal for the beginning group. "Bring a Torch" uses stopped techniques (mallets or thumb damp and also plucking), is in C Major and is 59 measures with one page turn. "Good King Wenceslas" is set "with spirit, quarter = 144", has one key change from C to F Major, no page turns and a few special techniques. It is a short 38 measures.
