| This is an outstanding CD!! I was looking for a good Christmas CD, found this, and now have a great Christmas CD! The performances both from the philadelphia orchestra and the philadelphia chorus is spectacular! The music just surroundes you with warmth and christmas spirit. There is no other Christmas CD to compare with this except, of course, Handel's Messiah. |

| This is a classic Christmas CD. When I played it on the CD player in the living room for the first time, my 15-year-old son came up the stairs and said it was very nice and he really enjoyed it. It is a lovely and inspirational CD. Merry Christmas! |

 Great pick if you don't like "commercial" Xmas music

| I have always preferred classical Christmas music as opposed to something like Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas is You" and the 10,000 versions of "Silver Bells" so this album really fit the bill. Great pick if you prefer classical music to pop Xmas songs. |
