My Favorite Classical Christmas CD December 22, 2007
As a matter of full disclosure, I'm not a super-audiophile nor a super-classical fan, so my reasons for rating this at 5 stars are the following:
-The opening medley is majestic and joyful.
-It has waltzes. I love waltzes! If only I could have been a Victorian (but with hot showers and good soap).
-Carol of the Bells. Gorgeous.
-Carillon by Bizet. Absolutely transcendent.
-This is a CD I've been searching for for about 7 years. I have an old cassette of this exact recording that I bought out of a bin at a grocery or drug store some time in the '90s, and I'm SO happy to have found it on CD (with a different title & artwork than the cassette).
So, I hope this is helpful, but if not, go ahead and click "not helpful" but I'm going to go listen to this again, in my car, today, and every day until Jan.1. For $5.98, I may even buy an extra copy and keep it as a back-up! I don't ever want to lose this.
