Rating:  - Great alternative to Christmas songs
This is a terrific collection of Christmas music with the twist of a brass ensemble. I have used it to mix up a collection, and it really adds variety to the mix. Very well done.
Rating: - Outstanding Musicality
Several raters have complained about the lack of a listing of the performers on this disc. The Philadelphia Brass Ensemble was nothing more than the principal and second players of the Philadelphia Orchestra. Perhaps "nothing more" is not the best way to describe this as the performers were, at the time, some of the best players in the US.

Rating: - A True Classic
This CD is all instrumental of well known traditional christmas carols. One of the pieces is a brass version of "Twelve Days of Christmas" is my absolute, all time favorite version. We have enjoyed ours for years and bought two more to give to family members so that (hopefully) when we visit them over the holidays we can listen to the good stuff!
Rating: - a classic
This is one of my favorite holiday recordings - a classic from 1967. Beautiful brass renditions of 25 carols.
Rating: - Exactly What I Was Looking For
This is exactly the cd of traditional carols I was looking for. Those who want less traditional carols would probably like "A Christmas Concert" by the Pittsburgh Symphony Brass.
