On Christmas Eve, 1818, in a small Austrian village, a local Catholic priest and a church organist composed a Christmas carol that changed the course of holiday music forever. Exactly two hundred years later, it’s not the holiday season until you’ve heard “Silent Night” in the car, at the store and on TV – all in the same day.

In Jingle Bell Pop, John Seabrook, acclaimed author of The Song Machine, takes us deep inside the holiday music business. We go behind the scenes to meet some of the producers, songwriters and recording artists responsible for the timeless tunes we hear on repeat between Thanksgiving and Christmas every year.

In this Piano by Ear lesson, you will learn a late beginner piano solo of “Carol of the Bells” completely “by ear". The song is fully demonstrated and then taught in small sections without the use of print or music. Remember to check out some of the other Piano by Ear Christmas carols at this same level.

Learn this reflective Christmas carol without using any music, print, or video. The lesson starts with a full demonstration of the arrangement and then proceeds to teach the entire song “by ear”, describing every note and finger used to play the song.
