Christmas Music Classics to share [Ecumenical thread]
various ^ | various | various

Posted on 12/01/2011 12:38:32 PM PST by Judith Anne

This thread is offered to all of us as a refuge from the usual Christmas conflict. Please post links to classical Christmas music, the more beautiful the better, that way we can come here, stop by to greet each other with peace in our hearts and leave the thread uplifted, perhaps with a song or piece of music we had not heard in a while.

Please let each song inspire a prayer for peace in your heart, and a blessing for fellow FReepers.

It's been years since I heard the Huron Carol sung, composed over 400 years ago, but lovely.

May God bless us all with a beautiful Christmas month, filled with peace, love, safety, blessings, and the joy of heaven.

Please leave your favorite with a link. No jingle bell rock, sacred music only. Thanks.

Loreena McKennit - GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN

Get in a quiet place, close your eyes, and let this song sweep you back in time and place to the first Christmas.

Just beautiful. Thanks to both of you...I’m thinking I may make a playlist for myself from this thread.

May your Christmases be blessed with grace, love, and joy.

Jackie is an absolutely amazing singer.

Especially for being only 11 years old.
