Away In A Manger (German) - Eb Major

There are two different versions of the tune of the Christmas Carol "Away In A Manger". This one is a German folk song and is the most common version sung in America. It starts s-s-f-m-m-r-d-d-t,-l,-s, and is in 3/4 time.
With many clear examples of the rhythm "tum ti" (dotted crotchet - quaver) this is a great song to prepare and practise this rhythmic element in 3/4 time.
Great practise opportunity for melodic elements "fa" and "ti" in this Christmas Carol.
