5 out of 5 stars Music for the Season.......2007-01-16

This cd is an excellent addition to anyone who owns and loves the Rankin/Bass Christmas specials. My children loved to hear the music from the shows they had watched.

5 out of 5 stars The Best!!!!.......2007-01-09

The best of Christmas songs on one album for parents and children alike!
I bought it for my three year old son. I wanted Christmas songs that were familiar to him and upbeat! This is it! It's mid January and he still requests it everytime we go for a ride in the car!!

5 out of 5 stars AN EXCELLENT RANKIN-BASS COMPILATION!!!.......2005-12-22

The is simply a WONDERFUL cd!!! Rudolph has got to be my all-time favorite!!! Yes, The Year Without A Santa Claus should have been on here becuase it is a Rankin-Bass show. I just don't understand some of the reviewers wanting the Grinch on this cd...IT IS NOT A RANKIN-BASS SHOW therefore it would not belong on this compilation. The Grinch is Dr. Suess not Rankin-Bass! Remember, Have A Holly Jolly Christmas this year!!!

4 out of 5 stars I Love This Christmas CD!........2005-10-18

This is a great CD, the songs are fun and they bring back good memories of listening to the songs when I was little and really I still love to listen to these songs and always will. I also have fond memories of watching the Christmas specials that these songs are from! All the songs on the CD are good but the best are Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, Frosty The Snowman, Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, Holly Jolly Christmas, Jingle, Jingle, Jingle and Silver and Gold. I very highly recommend this CD for both the young and the young at heart!

5 out of 5 stars All The Memories Of Christmas You Ever Had.... All In One CD!.......2005-10-09

This has every song from ALL the classic christmas movies.
Including Rudolph ( great lively music ), the Little Drummer
Boy ( the best of the best ) and other really cool songs.
Even if your favorite movie isn't one of the most popular ones,
you'll still find all your favorite songs. So, instead of
buying remakes of these songs ( like Kidz Bop Christmas ) why not
actually buy this? Here's a list of the movies and a rating, 1 being the worst and 10 being the best.

Rudolph- 10
Always a favorite!

Santa Claus is coming to town- 9
Great!

The Little Drummer Boy- 10++++
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

3 out of 5 stars americas 25 favorite christmas songs.......2004-11-19

I enjoyed the happy music of "deck the halls" it was beautiful but I still like the ray conniffs christmas songs. they are excellent songs for winter seasons.

5 out of 5 stars A great selection of songs along with beautiful voices........2003-09-21

This is one of the most wonderful Christmas CD's that I now own (and I own many). There is a great collection of songs on one CD. The singers are so talented! What beautiful voices they all have that make this CD a real winner!

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful!.......2000-12-20

There are 25 songs on this cd even though it shows only 14. This is a good bargain because you have 25 songs for the price of one cd (which usually contains 10-14 songs). I bought this cd and it is very beautiful! Both young and old can enjoy because they sing traditional christmas songs compared to modern songs today which is usually revised or changed in some way. Young,teens,middle-aged,etc can enjoy too because it DOESNT sound too much of boring church music or something really really old. No need to skip tracks!There is NOTHING boring on this cd and it never drags because some of the songs seem short but all are worth listening too--most of the songs you may be familiar with/grew up with. It's great for the family and/or just for singing/listening along with..if you're looking for traditional xmas songs, this is GREAT! Voices are beautiful and music is fun! Below is the complete list of the cd that the review left out:

1. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing ,2. O Come All Ye Faithful,3. Silent Night, 4.

5 out of 5 stars A very good selection of songs........1999-11-06

I thought it was a great CD, but it said Americas 25 greatest songs,yet it only displayed 14 of the songs. I plan on buying the CD for x-mas and I'm sure my family will enjoy it also.

5 out of 5 stars uplifting.......2007-01-16

I saw this broadcast in 1991 or 1992 and have it on video. My only regret is that the concert is not available as a DVD, because the wonder is as much in the impassioned and dramatic 'conversations' between the three stars as in the sounds they produce. Still, until then, this is unforgettable stuff.

3 out of 5 stars not too good, not too bad.......2007-01-09

this was an okay cd. it had some good songs i liked, but it was not the best christmas cd i've heard.

4 out of 5 stars December 8, 1991 Must Have Been Quite A Night In NYC.......2003-12-14

December 8, 1991 must have been a great night in New York City, especially at Carnegie Hall. On this evening, three outstanding performers backed by a great orchestra and two different choirs joined forces for a Christmas concert. The fruit of this effort is the recording A CARNEGIE HALL CHRISTMAS CONCERT.

When Kathleen Battle, Frederica von Stade, and Wynton Marsalis collaborate in a concert, how can it be anything but an event? This disc shows just how phenomenal event this concert must have been. Each performer had ample opportunity to demonstrate the performer's individual talents, but there are also many duets with Battle and von Stade as well as works where all three perform together. The Orchestra of St. Luke's is conducted by Andre Previn and has a sumptuous sound. The American Boychoir and the Christmas Concert Chorus add backups that enhance so many of the arrangements. Battle and Von Stade's rendition of "Gesu Bambino" is probably one of the best recordings of this beautiful carol. The "Evening Prayer" from HANSEL AND GRETEL is a highlight as well. Winton Marsalis and his septet display their talents in jazz versions of "Winter Wonderland" and "We Three Kings." There is a great Christmas medley that concludes the disc that is simply vocal and orchestral fireworks at their best.

My only critique, or pet peeve might be the better way of expressing it, would be "The Twelve Days of Christmas." This particular arrangement has the gifts in a different order than the standard version, but since this could be open to dispute, and in the spirit of the Christmas holiday, I won't consider this a strike against the album.

I'll say it again: December 8, 1991 must have been a great night in New York City, especially at Carnegie Hall.

5 out of 5 stars Voices of Angels.......2003-11-21

The stars must have been aligned perfectly, all must have been right with the world on that night of December 8, 1991 in NYC's Carnegie Hall when this Christmas concert was filmed, because it is an example, one of those rare instances when everything falls into place perfectly.
On this particular night Kathleen Battle, Frederica Von Stade, Wynton Marsalis and Andre Previn performed, not only with their instruments but with their hearts as well. All the performers relate and connect to this often performed material in ways others simply do not. This is secular Holiday music performed with fervor and an emotional connection that borders on the religious.
The highlight of this recording is the 17 minute "American Songs" (I Wonder as I Wander, Who Was Mary, etc) performed primarily by Battle and Von Stade that is so exquisite as to be otherworldly.
Christmas Concerts can be corny or at worst, maudlin. But on this particular night in 1991, the angels sang and the heavens opened and called forth these artists to perform not only with their voices but with their souls as well. This is an emotional experience that is not to be missed.

5 out of 5 stars Makes your heart sing!.......2003-11-18

This is a wonderful CD. The entire performance is absolutely perfect. Its the first Christmas CD we listen to every year and now my children start asking to hear it around Thanksgiving. I can't count the number of people I've given this to as a gift. We're are on our second copy!

Michael Dulin has given new life to familiar, traditional Christmas songs. As a pianist, I am thrilled with his ingenious cord progressions which lavishly elevate my holiday favorites. His version of O Holy Night is transcending. Thank you, Michael, for inspiring me!

5 out of 5 stars from Solo Piano Publications.......2005-09-21

Pianist extraordinaire Michael Dulin's long-awaited Christmas album is here, and it was well worth the wait! Making traditional music of the season sound fresh and new is a real challenge, but Dulin has done it with effortless style and the finesse he is known for. Dulin often adds keyboard embellishments to his music, but for this album, most of the tracks are solo piano. Combining his long career in classical music with jazz stylings, Dulin has created a Christmas album that is uniquely his own and that is certain to become a favorite of those who add it to their collections. All but one of the tracks are traditional sacred carols, and the one original piece is one of Dulin's most beautiful compositions to date.

The album opens with an exuberant arrangement of "Deck the Halls." Bubbling with joy, this track immediately demonstrates what an incredible pianist Dulin is (one of the best in the world to these ears!). "O Come Emmanuel" is one of my favorite carols, and Dulin's arrangement is serious and reverent without going to the pitch-black tone that many have given the song. This is truly a highlight on an incredibly good album. "Silent Night" is gentle and delicate, and you can almost see snow falling in the moonlight. "The First Noel" is sweetly simple and has some slightly jazzy touches that bring it up to date without changing the spirit of the piece - very warm and charming. "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear" is an easy, flowing ballad in Dulin's inimitable style that makes the song his own. "Joy to the World" picks up that pace a bit, but keeps the song delicately rejoicing. My favorite track is Dulin's original "Mary's Babe's A Sleeping." I think this quote from Dulin says it all: "It has a sweep and a sadness that seems right for the CD - sweet dreams of a baby who will bear such enormous burdens and die such a tragic death. I wanted to telescope all of that into the lullaby." Dulin's treatment of "O Come All Ye Faithful" is a gentle call to worship. "Away in A Manger" was my favorite carol as a child, and Dulin conveys the sweet innocence that I still love about the piece. "O Holy Night" is often very dramatic and powerful, but Dulin chose a more gentle approach that works elegantly. The emotions are there, but are more serene. The biggest surprise of the album is "We Three Kings," which echoes Dulin's incredible "Night Rhythms" on his "Atmospheres" album, one of my all-time favorite Dulin pieces. This is a jazz piano arrangement with keyboard accompaniment and rhythms. Although different from the rest of the album, it fits right in and supplies a bit of magic - kind of like an unexpected gift. The closing tracks is a short reprise of "O Come All Ye Faithful" played in a big classical style.

What a great Christmas album! Several years in the making, Dulin has outdone himself once again. Give yourself an early Christmas treat, and enjoy it for years to come. Very highly recommended!

5 out of 5 stars Great album.......2007-02-08

For a different flavor on your christmas favorites - i highly recommend this album...

5 out of 5 stars Probably the best Christmas Album Out there.......2006-12-16

to me it's funny. not intentionally, which makes it funnier.

i got it for my mom for christmas back in the days of the cassette tape. i had no clue what i was getting, i knew it was the 3 tenors she loved and thought the idea of them singing christmas songs was great. i had no clue it was going to be so funny!

Carracas trying to sing "Jingle Bells" and making it operatic was hysterical to us and has become a long lasting joke in my family all these years later.

Silent Night is wonderfully done, and as well as a few others.

this is a great alternative from the Rat Pack (Sinatra, Davis, Martin) Christmas music that is played to death by the retailers.

I'm getting it on CD this year!

4 out of 5 stars 'a must have' Great Christmas Music, heavy on the Carreras.......2003-12-10

I hate that phrase 'must have' but this applies for fans of the 3 tenors or anyone who's tired of the same old Christmas music. Includes the typical stuff like Jingle Bells (listen for Carreras' phrasing 'one horse op-en sleigh') and I'll Be Home for Christmas (Domingo). Also fun (or painful, depending your viewpoint) is Carreras' 'Joy to the World' and phrasing 'Let heaven and nat-ure sing'(this is an early version obviously). But songs like Navidad (Carreras), La Virgin Lava Panales (Domingo)and Mille Cherubini (Carreras again) are beautiful and have not been covered to death like most Christmas songs. Silent Night in 3 languages is pretty awesome too. What made this CD for me was Carreras' 'Guten Abend, Gut Nacht' a lullaby. It lulled my dog to sleep. And he's a Pavarotti fan.
