Pam got me thinking about holiday music yesterday — so, of course, I spent a bunch of time rummaging through cd cases last night, rediscovering some old favourites (and wondering why some unfavourites are still kicking around).
There are two cd’s that I always come back to each December, even though I’ve had them for ages and listen to them a lot each year. They’re both from the George Winston team – Wyndham Hill Artists. The first is called A WINTER’S SOLSTICE and the sequel (surprise!) is called A WINTER’S SOLSTICE II. I think it’s because they’re instrumental that I can listen to them over and over again – or maybe because much of the music is thoughtful and tranquil. That’s welcome at this busy time of year!
Do you have favourite holiday music?

Thanks for the recs. I love George Winston, but I’ve never heard those CDs.
I’d have to say my fav holiday CD is the music for A Charlie Brown Christmas by Vince Guaraldi.

Probably our family favorite is “Barenaked for the Holidays” by The Barenaked Ladies.
One of our favorite seasonal songs is “Light is Returning” (We celebrate Winter Solstice).
“light is returning, even though this is the darkest hour, no one can hold back the dawn..”
