5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Christmas Compilations!, December 24, 2005
Lots of old favorites and several Classical/Baroque pieces that were new to me. Artful, sometimes ecstatic and always inspired arrangments and performances. This is a diverse collection without a single dud. One of the very best I have found!
