4.0 out of 5 stars New England take-a-way., December 26, 2000

By A Customer

This is a very nice DVD. The first 90 minutes are of New England scenes of falling snow, the second 90 minutes is a video fireplace, and the third part is "90 minutes of instrumental Christmas music performed on original instruments of Colonial New England by the New England Christmastide Players." However, the first two parts -- the snow and the fireplace -- were what I really wanted and both come with a music score. The music score is excellent, but you can always turn off the volume and toss a favorite CD in your stereo as well.

What is the value of this DVD? Well, I am from New England and live overseas in Muscat, Oman. There is no snow over here and it's too hot a climate to have a fireplace. So, the DVD provides a nice festive edge, especially when we have company. Yeah...it's not the real thing, but it's the next best thing to being there.

I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a holiday DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely DVD to play during the holidays, November 13, 2005

By	K. Bennett (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love to put this DVD in on the "snow" function and have that in the background---it is very Christmasy and peaceful. Sometimes I listen to the music that is provided; other times I play my own favorite Christmas CDs, plug in my tree and enjoy the falling snow. It's a wonderful DVD and I highly recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Festive fun for the holidays, December 30, 2002

By	Daniel S. Russell "syzygy121" (Blacksburg, VA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I enjoyed this "mood tape" much more than most of the other ones I've sampled. The music is fun and at times brilliant. The snow scenes are enchanting, but repetetive, so it's better used for atmosphere rather than close watching. The "Christmas Log" function, however, is boring. I guess you could use it for atmosphere, but it is a tape loop of the fire, rather than a real fire. Fires have lives -- I would love to have seen the producers film a real fire for 90 minutes with it slowly dying down, logs collapsing and embers glowing when it was done. Instead it seems more like a gimmick.

Still and all I enjoyed the snow and the music.
