Click Here for Christmas Carols — The Old-Fashioned Kind
If you followed the links on last week’s post, “All I Want for Christmas Is . . . Readers for ‘Wrestling with God,” you heard some fun Christmas season songs.
They were two perennials, “All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth” and “All I Want for Christmas Is You.”
This week I’m passing along links to some bona fide, old-fashioned Christmas carols sung by full-throated choirs.
I listened to these choirs last year, and I’m listening again this Christmas. They keep me company as I wrap presents and decorate the house for a visit from the kids.
-
- My favorite: a mid-twentieth century — 1953 — recording by the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square (known at the time as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir). “The Mormon Tabernacle Choir Sings Christmas Carols”
- Next up, another mid-century choir offers simple, heartfelt renditions. The Norman Luboff Choir’s “Songs of Christmas” 1956
- If you are a fan of boys choirs, don’t miss the Vienna Boys Choir. “The Vienna Boys Choir Christmas Classics”
- From Salt Lake City this year comes a grand, twenty-first-century production featuring orchestra, bells, trumpets and a cast of hundreds. The 2025 Christmas with the Tabernacle Choir
Merry Christmas!
Barbie, you hit the nail on the yuletide head. Thank you.
