Considering the holidays upon us, I thought it might be interesting to share some of your favorite music of the season... or particular performances that you enjoy.

This one is was a surprise to me when I first came across it...

Riu Chiu

I like it.  Of course, I was always a Monkees fan.  [:D]

Pretty much anything that's *NOT* played on the radio 24/7 after Thanksgiving.




gungadin09 -> RE: Holiday Music Favorites (12/22/2010 12:13:48 PM)

i like:
Carol of the Bells
The Holly and the Ivy
Sleigh Ride
Joy to the World
Grandma got run over...- yes, i do!!!
The Little Drummer Boy
The Canadian Brass
anything upbeat
anything old school- meaning that it uses real instruments and singers who sound like they're human, and doesn't get too funky with the melody
anything i haven't heard a million times before

I like so many Christmas songs, it's hard to pick a favorite.

This piece/video has been a spirit-raiser for me this Advent.

Oh, excellent! 

I hate to admit it, but I love musical flash mobs.  [:)]

I especially enjoy choral music at the holidays.  There are 2 that
I really enjoy; the first needs no introduction or explanation.
The Morman Tabernacle Choir.  One of the worlds great choirs.

This year I have also been enjoying Trevor Pinnock.and the English
Chamber Orchestra.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqILJPv1JIY&feature=related

Pinnock is a harpsichord player and one of the best known advocates for
playing classical music on classical instruments.  His rendition of the
Messiah has received a lot of praise because the diction is so clear and
the words so easy to understand.  I have the whole piece and I also made
a CD of just the chorus selections which I really enjoy.
