Description:
Our whole family enjoyed this CD very much. It was the first CD we played on the 1st of December as the family tradition has been to play the first Christmas CD in the early hours before sunrise. I especially liked the range of music from tradiitonal favourites to more contemporary sounds.Each piece was unique. Truly a musical feast!
Details: A great CD for symphony type Christmas music; however, I already own a CD by John Williams & Boston Pops, which is very similar to this
Review Summary: Good music

Details: Very good album of Christmas music but not as good as Leroy Anderson's Christmas music arrangements which I also reviewed. It is worth the $$ for sure.
Review Summary: Create a Real Christmas Atmosphere

Details: This album was released on compact disc in October of 1990 but it was released on vinyl records sometime between 1969 to 1972. I grew up listening to it most years until I started on my own path. Of course in my younger days the appreciation for Christmas orchestra music was not there. Only rediscovered it on amazon.com in 1994. It's great to play low as background music on Christmas day while opening gifts or while friends and relatives are talking about. The music has a whimsical flare which really brings out the Christmas spirit. Highly recommended for initiating cheer and maintaining calm in the household.
Review Summary: Great Addition to my Christmas Collection

Details: I like Christmas music that I can play and replay without getting tired of it. This certainly fits that criteria. I listened to it frequently during the season and enjoyed it every time.
Review Summary: A wonderful celebration of Christmas music
