(Canadian Vanguard pressings follow the same sequence as the U.S. release.)
Canadian pressing of Joan Baezs revered Christmas album, produced by Peter Schickele (a.k.a. P.D.Q. Bach). A beautifully arranged collection blending Baezs crystalline soprano with classical, choral, and earlymusic influences.
This is one of the most elegant and musically rich holiday albums of the 1960s sparse, reverent, and timeless. Baez performs traditional European carols, medieval pieces, and sacred works with orchestral and choral accompaniment, giving the album a warm, cathedrallike atmosphere.
A staple for collectors of folk, choral, and classic Christmas recordings.
