Mannheim Steamroller, George Frideric Handel, ...

American Gramaphone, 2001

"Christmas Extraordinaire"
I was given this CD as a Xmas gift about seven years ago and absolutely love it. It is a favorite of mine next to the Amy Grant A Christmas Album. Those you who think it is boring don't know what you are missing. Awesome CD; puts you in the Christmas spirit.

Christmas Adagios

Gerald Finley, Adolphe Adam, ...

Decca, 2001

One of my very top 5 favorite holiday albums!
What a delightful surprise this 2 disc album was and I'm not a big fan of Christmas music. I loved all the selections and felt they were well performed. This is a true "must have" for any Christmas collection. Superior to many other compliations on the market. This ...

Greatest Hits: Broadway

Irving Berlin, Leonard Bernstein, ...

Sony, 1996

Great to Hear All those great Voices from the Past
I just wanted to confirm what the first reviewer had to say about this CD. To hear Ethyl Merman, Mary Martin, Andrea McCardle etc. singing their trademark songs brought a lot of memories from the mid-centry musical theater back again. The last song by Glynis Johns is ...

The Ultimate Relaxation Christmas Album

Ultimate Relaxation Christmas Album

Decca, 2002

Love this album!
This album is just what it says -- Ultimate Relaxtion. The sound is good, the music selections are well done and well chosen. Just turn out the lights, turn on the tree, and put this music on. You'll be relaxed as can be in no time!

The Christmas I Love

Andre Rieu, Johann Strauss Orchestra

Philips, 1997

A Christmas Collection That Is Just Plain Fun
Sometimes I think the only person who is happy that Public television is financially challenged, other that certain legislators who believe that it is too liberal and the culmination of all that is evil, is Andre Rieu. Now don't get me wrong, this happy Dutch musician ...

White Christmas

Irving Berlin, Anastasia Barzee, ...

Ghostlight, 2006

Gives new life to the classic film story...
Irving Berlin's White Christmas: White Christmas is one of the best musicals ever made - make that one of the best movies ever made. I absolutely adore it. This CD is the soundtrack to the stage version of the film. I so want to see this show. If the music is any ...

The Time-Life Treasury of Christmas

Adolphe Adam, Robert Allen, ...

Time Life Records, 2001

Another wonderful Time Life Christmas treasure trove
As with the first Christmas CD that I reviewed, which technically goes hand in hand with this particular Christmas CD (originally they were sold as a set), I must say that this one is just as amazing as the other one. As I said, these are the original songs by the ...

The Three Tenors Christmas

Adolphe Adam, Fermin Maria Alvarez, ...

Sony, 2000

First Christmas Album I bought for myself
Album is great. For any other holiday music, just listen to your local radio station that plays it during December.

Christmas Is...

Irving Berlin, Katherine K. Davis, ...

Sony, 1991

Blast from the past. Could not find anywhere else but Amazon
Thanks for having a very hard to find product. The memories of childhood roll back as I listen. Christmas Is, the soundtrack to my adolescent Xmas time. Used to sing in a Madrigal Choir in Iowa. Mr Schneider wherever you are I hope you are doing well.

Let Yourself Go

Kristin Chenoweth, Jule Styne, ...

Sony, 2001

Great singer and actress all in one
The first time I saw Kristin Chenoweth in a movie was the TV "Music Man". Just lately I listened to the "Wicked" soundtrack, and after that, I've been listening to Kristin's CDs whenever I can. This one is a jazzy, Broadway-type CD with fun, engaging songs. She's a ...

The Best of Broadway - The American Musical (PBS Series)

Irving Berlin, Leonard Bernstein, ...

Decca Broadway, 2004

Yes this is Some of the Best of Broadway!
This CD from Decca Broadway is a wonderful selection of some of the "Greatest Hits" of the Broadway stage. Decca and Sony have done an excellent job of remastering the various recordings, some of which still show some of their age, but come across quite ...

The Christmas Album: Vienna Boys Choir

Andrew Pask, Christopher Laurence, ...

EMI Classics, 2003

THE BEST VIENNA BOYS CHOIR CHRISTMAS MUSIC!!
This wonderful collection of Christmas music is especially good! Many pieces are very well known standards, and have been rewritten in ways that keep the music fresh, interesting and new! Every holiday season (and even throughout the year) this CD is played by our ...

Pops Christmas Party

Leroy Anderson, Irving Berlin, ...

RCA, 1994

Nothing Better Than A Pops Holiday
The Boston Pops have always made orchestral music more appealing to a wider audience, and Arthur Fiedler was the genius behind that success. Released in 1959, this album is full of everything from traditional selections from "The Nutcracker" to sing-along favorites ...

Christmas Wishes

Johann Sebastian Bach, Irving Berlin, ...

Koch Int'l Classics, 2003

Relaxing Christmas Music - Great for Meditation!
There are 2 groups of people in the world - those who endure Christmas music, and those who long for it. Yes, this is a simplistic generalization, but hey, it serves the purpose for this CD review! I am in the group that longs for Christmas music. I truly never ...

Jim Nabors Christmas

Jim Nabors

Sony, 2002

One of the best Christmas CDs ever!
This CD is flawless from start to finish. Columbia Records have taken twelve songs from two of Nabors' best LPs-"The Jim Nabors' Christmas Album" from 1967 and the 1972 release "Jim Nabors - Merry Christmas". They did an excellent job remastering these twelve tracks. ...
