12 Days of Christmas Traditions: Christmas Music

How could one possibly celebrate the season without music? Maybe that's my musical self talking but it seems like almost everyone loves to sing the classic holiday songs at this time of year.
I have way more Christmas music than I can possibly ever listen to in one year but I sure like to try.

Here are a few of my favorites:
Vocal:
Christmas is All in the Heart by Steven Curtis Chapman
Dream a Dream by Charlotte Church
Noel by Josh Groban
On This Winter's Night by Lady Antebellum
Christmas by Michael Buble
Peace on Earth by Casting Crowns
The Majesty and Glory of Christmas by Tom Fetke
God with Us by various artists
Christmas Album by Michael W. Smith

Instrumental:
Angels Heard on High by Windham Hill
An Angel's Noel by the Ware-Patterson Duo
Christmas Classics for Guitar by Stevan Pasero
Christmas Eve and Other Stories by Trans-Siberian Orchestra


Of course, we don't switch over the Christmas playlist on the iPod until the day AFTER Thanksgiving. Anything else would be sacrilege. :)
