Title: Christmas Music in the Pastoral Style
Review: I love Christmas Music. Not just the Bing Crosby "White Christmas" and the Andy Williams "Happy Holidays", but the classical music genre that truly portrays the Birth of Christ.(What Christmas is really about before Santa Claus).Respighi's music begins quietly with a lovely shepard-like melody, and ends the some way also. The message--this is a birth of a simple man, just like you and me, and who's life is just as important as yours and mine. No Hallejujah Choruses, just beautiful music.If you want a different feel to the Christmas feeling, listen to this work. You will be pleased.Just to mentioned other classical works that involve Christmas abd great, great music.1) Ralph Vaughan Williams-A Fantasy on Christmas Carols2) Honegger-A Christmas Cantata3) Hely-Hutchinson-A Carol Symphony. Try the new NAXOSrecording. Great other selections also!Enjoy!
