I thought it interesting to find out what you were playing for Christmas this year.... so if you feel like sharing please do.... :-)
So I'll start...I will be playing Mulet's Carillon Sortie this year... [:|]
I have only two more pages to nail and then I'll be well chuffed..... The middle section is such a killer... I had semiquavers in the left hand because I've got a really weak left hand.. slow is the way forward I guess.... Does anybody else share this problem of having a weak left hand ? how does one 'strengthen' it....
As long as we are on the topic of Mulet, why not mention the lovely Noël, from the "Esquisses Byzantines"? Even though it is not a Postludeit hassuch a haunting melody I try to play it at Christmas at least every other year. This websitehas a sample of it, though you might have to search a bit to find the right window.
For something completely different (not too difficult, but effective) I recommend the Advent Christmas Suite, by Alfred V. Fedak. It has some interesting arrangements of familiar Christmas melodies.His Postlude on "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" is a relatively easy Toccata that is a crowd-pleaser.
