We are a very music focused family. Everyone plays instruments and sings. So far, all the children have gotten degrees and certifications in some aspect of the musical field of study. The youngest is planning a music degree, too. The Christmas rehearsals often start around the first part of October for all the ensembles Dan and the children are involved with. We limit the official start of Christmas music in our home until the day after Thanksgiving EXCEPT for rehearsal music. It keeps us from burning out on holiday tunes too early. LOL
My children use Spotify and iTunes pretty regularly but Dan and I still have the old CDs that come out of storage this time of year. We make the stack by the CD player and we play tunes in the house while we are moving through our days. I know there are easier ways to play music but this is comfortable. LOL I do have an iTunes playlist for traveling in the car but if I am at home it’s the CD player for me. I have a stack that I listen to every year that are musts for me. The following albums are my favorites that complete the Christmas season experience for me… extremely eclectic and in no particular order.
Now, what is on your MUST LISTEN list for you during the Christmas season? Inquiring minds want to know! Drop your favorite or favorites in the comments below. Until next time…
Happy Listening!
