Best Winter Holiday Tunes
Jewel -- Joy - A Holiday Collection Can't imagine Jewel and Christmas in the same sentence, much less a CD? Nonetheless, the soprano sings with impressive range and feeling in this lovely collection of carols, playful Christmas songs, and spirituals. |

A Child's Hanukkah Younger children especially will enjoy this light-hearted album of amusing songs interspersed with family dialogue about preparation for the holiday. |
|
||||
Christmas Songs The modest title doesn't suggest the musical treats inside, which range from the Barenaked Ladies and Sarah McLachlan combining in a tuneful "God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen," to Dido's bittersweet "Christmas Day." |
|
||||
Festival of Light The miracle of Hanukkah is commemorated by traditional and new compositions in this instant classic featuring Sephardic tunes, Jewish liturgical melodies, and surprises in between like The Klezmatics and John McCutcheon. |
|
||||
Kwanzaa For Young People (And Everyone Else!) This album offers a joyous musical explanation of the seven principles of Kwanzaa, devoting one original song to each and culminating in a rollicking Kwanzaa Dance. |
|
||||
Rockapella Christmas For Christmas with a doo wop twist, this album can't be beat. The five male voices of Rockapella harmonize a capella on standards like "Winter Wonderland" and new pieces like "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch." |
|
||||
The Kwanzaa Album Good enough to enjoy all year long, this album features the tight vocals and inspired percussion of The Women of the Calabash on Kwanzaa songs as well as African melodies and "Lift Every Voice And Sing." |
|
||||
Muppets: A Green and Red Christmas Merry Muppet album goofy fun for all ages. |
