Classical Christmas

Luke 2:10-14: The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.  
For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Messiah and Lord.  
And this will be a sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.”  
And suddenly there was a multitude of the heavenly host with the angel, praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” 


When I just want to chill out- in traffic or at home- I usually turn on the local classical radio station WETA. They play some great Christmas music this time of year and the older I get (ie. the closer I get to the end of my earthly pilgrimage) the more I enjoy listening to classical Christmas music. WETA just happened to be playing A Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas on the radio the other night and so I chose this album to represent my fondness for classical Christmas music. With the exception of one scary song about casting down the proud, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir hits another holiday home run and classes up the joint. Grade: A- 


Listen to the album on Spotify...
