5.0 out of 5 stars Traditional Genius, January 1, 2003

Joemy Wilson has put together a beautiful hammered dulcimer collection. The CD is all instrumental, and covers a choice selection of very unique Christmas music that is of a Victorian nature. The songs herein are quite different than those on _Gifts, Volume 1_ or _Gifts, Volume 3_, and it's a vibrant, non-secular collection of songs. It's very different than, say, Mannheim Steamroller, but then again, it's meant to sound traditional, not eclectic. If you're tired of _Frosty the Snowman_, this will be a staple in your collection.

Joemy Wilson's third installment of her Christmas CD series is an interesting tour of Christmas music from around the world. The CD also includes extensive liner notes for each track that detail the history and source of the song. Play this at your next Christmas gathering!

I didn't even know who Joemy Wilson was. A local Christian radio station played "Carol of the Bagpipers" (Italian), and it BLEW ME AWAY. It was one of the best Christmas songs I ever heard. I did an internet search & found it on the GIFTS III. WOW!!!! Just superb! I play hammered dulcimer, too (um, nothing like Ms. Wilson), and Joemy is an inspiration. I've tried to simulate the Carol of the Bagpipers & also the O Come Little Children & document notes for flute/dulcimer duets for church. My praise group loves this CD as well; I got a copy for the leader & the flute player, they find it EXCELLENT. I've also bought Gifts II and Gifts I since. While they are superior to most Christmas music, I find Gifts I a little too ordinary now, and there are moments of brillance on Gifts II (The Zither Carol & Pat-a-Pan), as well as excellent tradition renditions. Joemy is wonderful!!! The only thing I didn't really care for is Ms. Wilson's Beatles on Dulcimer CD. I mean.... BEATLES on DULCIMER???? It just doesn't seem to be the correct genre for the hammered dulcimer, but to each their own. God bless you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
