While I've sung many of these familiar tunes in English, Norwegian, and Swedish at different times in various choirs myself, nothing gives me the same chill -- and even brings tears to my eyes (I'm a sentimental sap, at heart) -- as their German language versions. If you're seeking more traditional music for the Advent and Christmas seasons, I also recommend these CD's (or their streaming or MP3 versions):
Delightful, quiet, and contemplative seasonal music. Perfect for solo listening, family dinners, holiday gatherings, Christmas Day, or Christmas Week. A welcome departure from the overplayed Bings, Britneys, Mariahs, and hippopotami that otherwise clog the airwaves at this time of year.
