O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles) - Fingerstyle Guitar

I just figured I should pretend I'm in the Christmas spirit and do a Christmas carol. This arrangement is by Richard Flauding from the book , "A Classical Christmas". Most of the arrangements are short and basic, but all seem to have a few technical challenges. They're good learning tools.

I have two copies of this book. The first was published in 1980, the 2nd in 2000. I noticed the second book does not mention Flauding's name at all. He is given no credit for his work. Therefore, you should not buy the book. The publishing company is called "Centerstream". I have no respect for people who "own" the rights to other people's work and won't acknowledge the creator of the thing from which they are profiting. This concludes today's tirade . . . Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Jesus. It's always an honor to get a comment from a guitarist of your caliber. On your channel page you call yourself an amateur, but you could certainly play professionally, if you wanted. The holiday doesn't mean much to me, but I will always like the music. Feliz Navidad y buena suerte in el año nuevo.

Great as always. Don't need the Christmas spirit to enjoy great songs.

I think this is the first time I post a comment, even though I've been following you for more than a year. All the songs you play are peaceful and very pleasant to hear, therefore thank you so much for sharing them with us.

Merry Christmas and continue to make us dream !

Wonderful piece, beautifully played!

[chamacojesus]

Bravo, Mike! I have several reasons to like this video: you're playing a Spanish guitar, I love this carol specially, you play it perfectly and with a fantastic sound and, above all, I know you don't like Christmas at all, so it makes this present even more special....

Have a fantastic Christmas, Mike.
