Christmas Movies and Music

Christmas Movies and Music

 

I had a lesson with a student this morning and he asked me what kind of Christmas music I liked.  This got me thinking and reminiscing about my favorite Christmas songs.  When it comes to Christmas music, I am a traditionalist, I like the old stuff.  I decided to make a list of those songs and movies I love to watch and listen to.  I hope you enjoy my selections and please feel free to add your own favorites in the comments below.  If you would like to hear more about my holiday traditions, you can select my lesson, Let’s Talk, Christmas Movies and Music.

 

Without further ado, here are my lists:
