3Christmas Reflections is an arrangement of three Christmas carols. The first carol, The Friendly Beasts, is a traditional English carol. It is based on an old belief that farm animals receive the gift of speech at midnight on Christmas eve. The second carol is a traditional carol from Austria. As Lately We Watched is a description of the nativity scene as observed by shepherds guarding their flocks. The third carol in the arrangement, O Come Little Children, was written by German composer, J. A. P. Schulz (1747-1800). Schulz studied music in Berlin and was a prolific composer of sacred vocal music. He also composed operettas, instrumental works, and various piano pieces. The carol is an invitation for all people, especially children, to visit the nativity.

Christmas and Chanukah faiths collide in this hilarious yet musically satisfying option for your winter program! Four popular Christmas melodies are set in four distinct and characteristic klezmer styles. Opening with Jingle Bells over a slow and dramatic Doina, the music moves into a lively version of We Wish You a Merry Christmas as a Bulgar. A Khosidl is the setting for a slower, restrained version of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (complete with shout chorus!). Then the music takes off with Deck the Halls presented as a Sher. Of course, the Dreidel Song makes a cameo appearance at the end. Tons of fun and wildly entertaining!
