This is a beautiful Venezuelan Christmas Carol (Come, shepherds) that I found a version of with harmonizations by Vicente Emilio Sojo (1887 – 1974) (Venezuelan musicologist, educator and composer). I have changed a few chords, added some voices and part of the melody is modified. It has this typical Venezuelan rhythm in 2/4 with the first beat as a tuplet (triplet, triol) and the second beat in two eighth-notes. It is often played a lot faster but I prefer it slower and more Christmas-ish... I hope I am not offending and Venezuelans. :) Sheet music and TABs are available here: https://shop.per-olovkindgren.co ...
Merry Christmas everyone!! Regardless of your beliefs, religion or faith, we are all humans and should treat each other accordingly; with respect and love. We are all stuck on this same planet and should try to live in harmony. You can start tomorrow by hugging your mailman!
Love and Peace,

Most of Christmas Carols are pretty sad melodies. This one is quite different. Cool.
