Imagine the magic of Christmas colliding with the sun-soaked days of July. Sounds fun, right? This year’s “Christmas In July” piano piece is here, and it’s bound to bring giggles and grins to your studio.
Introducing “Definitely Not Good King Wenceslas,” a zany twist on the classic carol. This time, we’re swapping snowflakes for campfires and jingle bells for roasting marshmallows.
Our annual tradition of reworking beloved Christmas songs with goofy, summertime lyrics continues. This piece is perfect for primer students who are playing in middle C position and are ready to embark on a camping adventure.

Christmas In July… Yes, Please!

Our latest creation, “Definitely Not Good King Wenceslas,” is all about the adventures of camping. Think hammocks, campfires, and starry nights. Your students will love the quirky lyrics and catchy tune. Plus, it’s a great way to keep them engaged over the summer.
