‘We Three Kings of Orient Are’ is a beautiful Christmas carol and in this fingerstyle guitar lesson, we’ll learn three verse variations and two chorus variations. In the key of Am, first up, we’ll cover a basic, beginner fingerstyle version of the melody. We’ll then move on to a pretty version of the melody in the open position for the intermediate picker, then, moving up the neck, we’ll look at a great version, with a lovely variation of harmony, suited to the advanced intermediate picker. The two chorus variations will be suited to both the beginner & intermediate picker.
The variations can be played in any combination, as required, offering a wide range of contrast to the piece. The melody is simple, but as we spice it up with these variations, it is a beautiful way to play the tune and a great addition to your Christmas repertoire!
