Classical gifts for
the holidays
By Melinda Bargreen
Seattle Times music critic
It's the holiday season, and time to find out
which CDs are worth your hard-earned
dollars. We've organized some shortlists of
the excellent ones in several categories —
good luck and happy listening! [. . .]
"The Millennia Collection," Christmas Classics (609-886-6540,
www.christmasclassics.com): Two gorgeous book/CD combinations that
could become family heirlooms: "Best-Loved Christmas Carols,"
with a
CD, a song book and a fine-art history book ($39.95); and
"American
Christmas Classics," with three CDs, lyrics and another beautiful
book of
carol history ($59.95).
