A NEW RESOURCE FOR CHRISTMAS

 

New and unique – 17 beautiful and traditional Christmas Carols – now available with English texts.

 

O Tannenbaum, Stille Nacht, Alle Jahre wieder, Fröhliche Weihnacht überall, Leise rieselt der Schnee, Am Weihnachtsbaum die Lichter brennen,

Kling Glöckchen klingelingeling, Lasst uns froh und munter sein,

Still, still, still, Süβer die Glocken nie klingen and many more

 

All seventeen carols have been arranged and sung by Gaye Murphy, who has been singing professionally for over 20 years.

 

This CD beautifully captures the peace, tranquillity and serenity one associates with German Christmas festivities.

 

 

All recorded in a range for young and old to sing along, each carol in the pack is sung in German, then English, followed by an instrumental backing version.

Altogether - there are over 120 minutes of audio recordings.
