I volunteered last night to play a piano solo for our community Christmas performance (the churches in my town get together every Christmas and put on a choir/instrumental performance for the community). They're letting me pick the song and the one I picked is a daunting challenge. It's "I Saw Three Ships," as arranged by Jon Schmidt. I don't know how to link to the MP3 of it (or even if I can), so you guys can hear it, but if you go to jonschmidt.com and click on the Home tab (on the upper nav bar) and choose "Free Music," you can listen to a free MP3 of it.
Any tips on how to practice it? I've sight-read through it twice already and know pretty much how it goes. I have until December 12 to learn it (don't have to memorize it, but it needs to be performable). I've played piano since I was 8 (and I'll be 28 in sixteen more days!), but I haven't played a solo or had to practice for a performance in YEARS (not since college back in 2001 or so). Thoughts are greatly appreciated!
